Israel's Mediterranean coast is a long and narrow plain, with winding mountains and highlands in the north-central, Negev Desert in the south and Jordan Valley and Arawa Valley running through the north and south in the east. The coastal plains of different sizes between the plateau and the Mediterranean are fertile and are the main agricultural areas in Israel. Lake tiberias is located in the northeast with an area of 170 square kilometers, which is an important Israeli water storage reservoir. The area of the Dead Sea at the junction of East and Jordan is 1.050 square kilometers, which is the lowest point in the world and is known as the "navel of the world".
