The Be'eri Forest (Hebrew: יער בארי) of area about 11,000 dunams is located in the western Negev, within the Eshkol Regional Council area.
During winter and spring time it is covered with clusters of anemones, orchids, tulips, asphodels and many other flowers.
[3][4] Other tourist attractions include water cisterns and wells from the Byzantine period and extensive ammunition depots from the British Mandate period.
[5] During the winter season a major attraction of the area is the anemone blooming, which peaks on the break of January/February.
Luckily, the anemones were not damaged during the Palestinian airborne arson attacks,[2] from which other area of the forest, including the Be'eri Badlands, heavily suffered.
