Having visited Jordan or Israel and not seeing the Dead Sea, you will lose a lot. In this article, I would like to tell you more about the rest of the Dead Sea in Israel, the properties, how it is useful and what you need to know when swimming in salt water. We will talk about the sea from the side of Jordan, it is here that we collected information for this article.
Let's open a secret, in real life the Dead Sea is an ordinary lake, 80 km in size. in length and 17 km. in width, the deepest point is 398 meters, and the amount of salt is 7 times more than in the Mediterranean Sea, do what you want, but you will not be able to drown here, you have tried it yourself.
You won't find a single fisherman here, but do you know why? Because there is no such amount of salt here, not only fish, even microorganisms do not live here and birds are afraid to land, but scientists still found some types of bacteria and fungi.
First of all, we note that the lake is not useful for everyone; if you are going to relax on the coast in Israel or Jordan, you should definitely consult with your doctor. Remember, the Dead Sea does not heal, your doctor will heal, the sea gives only a healing effect, and even then not for everyone.

When is the best time to go to the Dead Sea in Jordan?
The first step is to decide on the period of rest at the Dead Sea, we advise you to take vouchers to this attraction of Jordan in June or September. At this time, the air temperature is not so hot and the water is already so hot that you can not lick it out of it all day. We got to Jordan in early July, it was so hot here that it was impossible to stay for a long time even in the water.
Holidays at the Dead Sea in Jordan must be correct and conscious, before our eyes, during the day, an ambulance came to the coast to some elderly tourists, so take the heat with full responsibility, whoever felt bad from the heat at least once in his life will understand what this warning is about and what are your risks.
What time of the year is the best time to visit the Dead Sea, we already wrote in the last article, but recall that in July the air temperature here reaches +42 degrees, the water temperature reaches +28 degrees. It is very difficult for the body to go into well-warmed water from such heat, and in the water you can stay no more than 15 minutes, you will feel uncomfortable.
The coast is represented by huge stones, on which it is very difficult to enter the water and swim, so all tourists who come here do not chase after sunburn and sandy beaches, but first of all everyone is interested in the healing effect. If you still need sand on the coast, then some hotels especially for advertising tourists bring sand and mud to their private beaches, but it is quickly washed out, so hotels do this procedure every year.

The healing properties of the Dead Sea
Now let's talk about the health properties, for which they love him so much. As we already said in the article about holidays in Jordan, the coast is considered the lowest place on planet Earth, this is already mesmerizing, isn't it? Arriving here, you will find yourself as much as 420 meters below sea level, which is why there are such temperature drops in winter. For example, in the city of Amman (350 kilometers from the sea) in winter the temperature drops to +10 degrees, and here you can sunbathe and swim at this time.
A trip to the Dead Sea in Jordan is amazing sunlight, excellent climatic conditions, high oxygen content in the air, minerals contained in salt, mineral springs about which we already wrote about in the last article about the sights of Jordan and the most important thing for which they come here is rich mud minerals, all this gives just an amazing effect to the human body. Do not forget that the healing effect with the help of all the listed factors can be achieved only if you use it according to a certain system.
You cannot, for example, sit all day stuck with mud or be in the water of the Dead Sea for more than 15 minutes, this puts your body under stress, and body cells begin to die, dry skin begins, which can even crack. This information was secretly told to us by a Jordanian in the spa treatment room, so we decided to share this information with you.
He also discovered the secret that the balsam tree growing here is used in all cosmetics that are imported to different countries and Russia. Moreover, the cosmetic effect is achieved precisely by this component, therefore, going on the best vacation in Jordan, buy a balsam tree, which is ten times cheaper here than cosmetics from the Israeli coast that are on the shelves of stores in your cities.
While resting, it is worth mentioning the healing properties of mud, it really is healing if you smear yourself during your vacation in Jordan for 10 minutes every day, having tried it on yourself, the girls really note the smoothing of wrinkles and the nourishing effect of the skin.
The most important thing that surprised us was the abundant amount of dirt lying around for free under our feet, it is worth coming to Russia and going to a cosmetics store, the hair stands on end because the dirt, having moved across the border in a small jar, becomes cosmetics for a thick wallet. Still, the Jewish population knows how to make money out of thin air, or rather out of the ground.
Water is the main healing base, its healing properties are contained in the composition of such elements: chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium, bromine, sulfur, calcium. As we have already said, the salt content many times higher than the composition of the Mediterranean sea will prevent you from drowning and help your body to relax, by reading for example a magazine.

Now you can try to regain youth and beauty by visiting the amazing and healing place of Jordan.
