Be'er Sheva (also spelled Beersheba, Hebrew באר שבע) is a desert city of approximately 200,000 inhabitants in southern Israel - the fourth largest city in the country. Beer Sheva is very much the gateway to the Negev region of Israel. The layout is very spread out, as there is no shortage of land in the desert. There isn't much of a downtown, except for a few streets in the old Arab quarter. While Beer Sheva is mostly middle class, it does have three wealthy satellite suburbs with manicured landscapes, private villas and a Palm Springs feel to them: Omer, Metar and Lehavim. A few Bedouin villages surround the city as well, which were built when the government forced these nomadic Arabic tribes into permanent housing and modern lifestyles. Some feature tribal attractions which are worth a visit: Tel Sheva, Hura and others. In Beer Sheva some modern/experimental architecture has been explored in the 60s, mostly in government and public buildings, including the Ben Gurion University and Soroka Hospital buildings. A very comfortable train ride links the city to Tel Aviv with hourly departures. Remember that summers are hot!
