Date:

Still deciding on where to travel this year? We’ve got you covered.

Here are some reasons to why you should visit world’s oldest and most popular natural health resort – the Dead Sea in Israel:

-The Dead Sea is three million years old and is the lowest point on earth at 1,388 ft below sea level.

-The lowest point on earth is also home to the lowest road on the planet, Highway 90 located 1,289 ft. below sea level on the Israeli shore.

-One of the saltiest water bodies on the planet, the Dead Sea has 10 times more salt concentration of ocean water creating a bucket list experience of floating on water.

-What if we told you that the Dead Sea isn’t a sea at all but actually a hypersaline lake ranked as the world’s deepest salt water lake.

-The world’s first and most popular health resort, the Dead Sea was a favorite among royalty with the likes of King Herod the Great and Queen Cleopatra.

-The biggest free spa on earth, the Dead Sea region has been attracting visitors from all over the world. The mineral content in the water, mud and salt, the low content of pollen and other allergens along with low solar UV radiation, combined with the atmospheric pressure and the depth, have healing properties for various skin diseases, respiratory ailments and rheumatic pain.

A unique occurrence at the Dead Sea is of large amounts of asphalt which rises to the surface of the water. Ancient Egyptians would import the asphalt from the Dead Sea region and used it to embalm mummies.

-Yes, the famous Dead Sea Scrolls were found here; hundreds of well preserved Biblical and non-biblical manuscripts that helped reshape historic views on religion.

-Evidence shows that the Dead Sea may dry up within 50 years so it is a highly recommended and a must visit destination for this year.
