In this breathtaking video, filmmaker Amir Aloni takes us on a journey to the famous Qumran Caves, where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found.

What you’re going to experience in this video is a trip back in time. Aloni presents us with a clear view of the modern-day excavations, flying the camera around the caves and over the Qumran landscape. Of course, it was in this area where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found. Aloni also offers viewers a glimpse of the homes of the Dead Sea Sect – the Jewish community that lived there during the Second Temple period.

Aloni has provided United with Israel with a wealth of beautiful videos exploring significant locations in Israel. His very popular videos give us a gorgeous perspective of Israel with sweeping panoramic views. They include the Dead Sea, the Negev and the Arava, the Shokeda Forest, the Tomb of Samuel the Prophet, the Israeli Air Force rescuing a hiker in the Judean Desert, the Migdal Tzedek Fortress, the Judean Desert After the Rain and the Herodian.
