Quimran is in Israel on the northwest shore of the Dead Sea. Famous for the discovery of manuscripts of Isaiah found in caves by 2 Bedouin shepherds in 1947 - Dead Sea Scrolls. http://mosaic.lk.net/g-qumran.html#scrolls The Lonely Planet - Israel

Qumran is in Palestine. It is a matter of debate whether that is part of Israel or a separate country.

Is Palestine a recognised country now? I think it's safer to say The Holy Land and leave it at that.
