For a long time, the monastery lay in no-man's-land between Israel and Jordan. On the Israeli side, a large wooden platform was built on the western bank of the Jordan River to ensure access for the many visitors who wished to be baptized in the waters of the Jordan. Changing facilities are also available for those wishing to be baptized here.
