The Dead Sea Spa Resort was the first hotel built on the Dead Sea in Jordan. It is located at the lowest point on Earth, approximately 420 meters below sea level. In recent years, the water level has been steadily declining. The Dead Sea is an endorheic salt lake on the border between Jordan, Israel, and the West Bank, known as the lowest point on Earth on land. Its extremely high salt content allows bathers to float weightlessly on the water. The salinity is 34%, which is why no fish can live there. The water contains not only sodium chloride but is also rich in various minerals such as magnesium, potassium, and iron, which are known for their healing effects on the skin and musculoskeletal system.
