One last interesting location in the world is the Dead Sea, located in Israel. The Dead Sea is the lowest place on Earth, at 1,300 feet below sea level. This concept really amazes me; there is no life within the Dead Sea and the water itself produces chemicals. Not to mention, people can simply float all day, while our skin gets treated (the chemicals are very healthy for our skin). One last amazing fact is that the water within the dead sea is always extremely warm; in the winter, the maximum tmeperatures reach 86 degrees, while in the summer, the maximum water reaches 104 degrees. This is definetely one place I cannot miss out on in life! More information and facts about the Dead Sea can be found at http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/vie/Deadsea.html.
I have heard alot about the Dead Sea and its abnormal qualities but I never knew the water was so warm! The fact that you can float, there are no fish, and it has beneficial chemicals in the water makes it more appealing. I definitely want to visit!
