The site is located on the banks of River Jordan at 380 Meters Below Sea Level, just 5 miles North of the Dead Sea, the final destination of the river. River Jordan gives the pilgrims and tourists alike the feeling of authenticity. This site is considered a holy place as it is where Jesus Christ was baptized by John the Baptist an event that changed human history and marked the dawn of Christianity. Also, there is a number of Churches in the area. Worth visiting. better during cooler months to avoid the Jordan Valley high temperatures. <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/128454275@N05/49580161987/in/photostream/">www.flickr.com/photos/128454275@N05/49580161987/in/photos...</a>
