A small park & new apartments in the new town of Arad, Israel. In the scorching, barren Judean Wilderness area of Israel, a simple park and modern new apartments blossom in the "new development town" of Arad. Typical of Israel's determination to transform the desert into the Biblical "Land of Milk and Honey," Arad now boasts 10,000 residents, several thriving industries and even a few tourist hotels.
