From Petra to Madaba the city of Mosaic, the city which has the best documentation of the holly lands by the map of mosaic of Jordan river, Dead Sea and most important cities of the Bible. Not faraway, visit Mount Nebo the Shrine Of Moses to look down to the holly lands from the same spot where Prophet Moses had his last look and the last mentioned in his story.
At 431m below sea level – the lowest point on earth – the Dead Sea is a body of intense blue water, polished smooth like oiled skin on a windless day in winter and ruffled into whitecaps by the summer winds.
Dead Sea salts and minerals have long been exploited for their skin-friendly properties. While swimming, the extreme salinity will help you discover cuts you never knew you had (don’t shave beforehand), and be prepared for a few minutes of agony if any water gets in your eyes. 'Swimming’ is actually a misnomer – the buoyancy makes it difficult to do much more than happily bob.
The northeast coast is lined with resorts. Here you can watch the sunset across the water and look across to the West Bank and the distant lights of Jerusalem.

Mount Nebo became a place of pilgrimage for early Christians from Jerusalem and a small church was built there in the 4th century to commemorate the end of Moses' life. Some of the stones from that church remain in their original place in the wall around the apse area. The church was subsequently expanded in the 5th and 6th centuries into the present-day large basilica with its stunning collection of Byzantine mosaics.
