Dead Sea Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
😍 FLOATING time at DEAD SEA 🌊
#beachaholic
Most famous beach in the world - Dead Sea 🌊!
The Dead Sea, a natural wonder, offers an unparalleled beach experience. Nestled between Jordan and Israel, its beaches are anything but ordinary. The water is so densely saturated with salt and minerals that you can effortlessly float on the surface. These minerals, believed to have therapeutic properties, also transform the shore into a natural spa retreat. Slathering yourself with the thick, mineral-rich mud and then rinsing in the calm sea is indeed an experience of a lifetime. Beyond the beach, the extraordinary landscape, dominated by hilly terrains and stark desert beauty, unfolds. The Dead Sea, with its unique aquatic environment and captivating surroundings, provides an enchanting escape unlike any other beach destination.
This is the Dead Sea

📍Dead Sea, Israel 🇮🇱
Some tips for having a pleasant Dead Sea experience: DO NOT put your head under water and wear some sort of protection on your feet.
Jordan
Jordan, officially known as the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, is a country located in the West Asia region, bordering Syria, Iraq, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the Red Sea. The capital of the country is Amman, and the largest city is Aqaba.
Jordan is a dry country surrounded by hills and mountains in the Levant region. In addition, Jordan has many famous attractions such as the ancient city of Petra, the Dead Sea, the Jordan River Valley mentioned in the Old Testament, and the tourist destination of Oman. These attractions make Jordan a popular tourist destination.
Jordan is a traditionally monarchic country, and King Abdullah II is the monarch. The official language of the country is Arabic, and the majority of the population practices Islam. Jordan's economy is mainly based on tourism, chemical industry, agriculture, and mineral extraction, and the country is also a commercial center in the Middle East.
In terms of politics, Jordan has always been one of the relatively stable countries in the Middle East, and it has a place in Middle Eastern and international affairs. As a country that follows Islamic law, Jordan has a deep understanding and appreciation of Islamic culture and traditions, and also supports and promotes the harmonious development of Islam.
My itinerary started from Dubai to Amman, Jordan. The next day, I went to Jerash, which can be reached by charter or by taking a minibus from the North Station. Jerash has preserved a large number of ancient Roman ruins, and the rise and fall of ancient Rome can be seen in the ruins. After returning from Jerash, I visited the ancient Roman theater and Citadel Hill in Amman. The next day, I went to Petra and chatted with a Dutch guy on the way. Petra is a very large ancient city, and it can be tiring to walk around, but overall it was manageable. Continuing down from Petra, I arrived at Wadi Rum, which is famous for its red desert and is the most Mars-like place on this planet. I stayed in the desert for one night and saw the starry sky that I hadn't seen in a long time. The local Bedouin people were very hospitable, and there were people from all over the world in the tents.
Continuing down from Petra, you will arrive at Aqaba, the only port city in Jordan, a small town different from other cities in Amman. Finally, I went to the Dead Sea to experience floating. If you have wounds on your body, you will float especially easily.

The Rose City of Petra ✨
Petra has also been referred to as the “Rose City” because of the colour of the stones used in its buildings. It was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985
I checked off my second Jordan bucket list here, which is to see The Treasury (Al-Khazneh). To get here, you first walk the 1.2km long Siq, a narrow gorge that serves as the entrance to Petra.
I recommend spending two days here because the place is massive and there is so much to see in Petra.
Top tip: take pictures on your way back from the trails around 5 pm when people start leaving.
Best months to visit April and September 😎

Petra-Jordan
Petra is a famous archaeological site in Jordan's southwestern desert. Dating to around 300 B.C., it was the capital of the Nabatean Kingdom. Accessed via a narrow canyon called Al Siq, it contains tombs and temples carved into pink sandstone cliffs, earning its nickname, the "Rose City." Perhaps its most famous structure is 45m-high Al Khazneh, a temple with an ornate, Greek-style facade, and known as The Treasury.

Masada National Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
💙🤍💙 Masada NP! Israeli Gem 💎😍
#summerbreak
Masada National Park! It's this epic spot in Israel that'll blow your mind, no doubt. Picture this: an ancient fortress perched on top of a freakin' mountain! The views from up there are absolutely insane, my friend. You can see the vast desert stretching out in all directions, with rugged cliffs and deep canyons. And the crazy part? This place has some serious historical significance. It's where a small group of rebels held out against a whole empire back in the day. Talk about intense! You can explore the ruins and check out the Roman Ruins. Masada National Park definitely felt like an adventure movie. If you are in Israel, don’t miss it! It is the second most popular tourist destination in the country!
The stunning fortress of Masada
Masada is a desert fortification that is steeped in history! It is built on an isolated rock plateau that overlooks the beautiful Dead sea where the eye can see as far as neighboring Jordan. Masada is one of Israel's most popular tourist attractions and it is easy to see why. In addition to the history, visitors will be amazed at the unique viewpoints from the top. #israel #masada
Masada is a steep natural fortress that stands majestically in the desert of Judea overlooking the Dead Sea. From the cable car at the foot of the mountain, the blue Dead Sea is more and more in front of you, and it is getting closer to the palace on the 300-meter peak. It is also a luxurious palace associated with Herod. Herod knew the strategic advantage of Masada, so she used Masada as a sanctuary for the invasion of the enemy to drink the winter palace. During his reign, he built luxury palaces, as well as storage-rich warehouses, reservoirs and turret walls. Until his death, the materials left over for many years have not been used up. Masada is a symbol of the ancient kingdom of Israel. In 70 AD, the Romans occupied Jerusalem and killed the Jews. The surviving Jews carried their families and went to Masada. In the face of the fierce siege of the Romans, the people in Masada City collectively committed suicide. At the high temperature of
40 degrees, the tragic history of "Ning is a jade, not a complete" is astonishing in the throat. The old ruined wall is full of weeping atmosphere. Nowadays, we talk and laugh, and while cherishing the past, we use bread to feed the desert swallows - a loyal bird that follows the food.
Masada Castle, the site of the castle built on the hills of the desert more than 2,000 years ago, is one of the Jewish holy places. The natural advantage of easy to defend and difficult to attack, so that the Jews who stood here in the past successfully resisted the siege of Rome for three years, but unfortunately, the last sight of the city is hopeless, more than 900 military and civilians prefer to commit suicide and are not willing to be enslaved by the enemy, such a tragic history, Let Masada not only become a world cultural heritage, but also become a symbol of the Jewish national spirit. Today, "Masada Yong is no longer falling" has become an oath for Israeli soldiers when they join the army.
The road to the top of the mountain is extremely dangerous, and it is called the snake road. At present, there is a convenient cable car at the foot of the mountain. Of course, this is only for tourists. The Israeli natives can only walk up the mountain through the winding snake path to show their respect for the Masada spirit. At the top of the mountain, you can see the surrounding walls, the remaining fortifications, the ancient Roman baths, the synagogues, etc., overlooking the Dead Sea not far away.

En Gedi Nature Reserve Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Enjoying the wonder of the Ein Gedi oasis
#newyearadventure at the wonderful Ein Gedi oasis reserve! Highly suggest combining a visit to the Dead Sea with a stop at this oasis. It makes for an ideal refreshment out of the heat of the sun where you can enjoy the numerous waterfalls. Ein Gedi is also a great location to see the ibex, a native deer like animal. Entry fees for non Israeli adults start at 31 shekels.
Ein gedi reserve
Came here with a tour group and I would recommend doing that unless you're with locals. It was a beautiful spot and the water was a much needed reprieve as the weather was extremely hot and humid.
Seemed like a very family-friendly place. Also seemed like a great place to go with friends.
Beautiful to see the Oasis in the desert.

A day of fun in Amman, Jordan, with a beautiful sunset on Castle Hill
A day of fun in Amman, Jordan, with a beautiful sunset on Castle Hill.
I went to Jordan, a very impressive niche travel destination, and I think half a day is enough for the capital, Amman.
Castle Hill in Amman
Recommended to go at sunset, you can see the beautiful sunset in Jordan, the sky is pink.
Roman open-air theater
You can overlook it from Castle Hill, and there is a square in front of the theater.
Amman Market
Personally, I like to visit local markets when I travel, where I can feel the atmosphere, visit souvenir shops, eat snacks, I bought a sunset sand painting from Jordan, which is in a bottle. Remember to bargain when shopping.
Snacks:
Arab coffee: You can see that it is heated with boiling sand, served in a disposable paper cup, the taste is very unique, with a strong spice flavor.
Kanafeh is a well-known Middle Eastern dessert, with various shapes, all sprinkled with crushed pistachios, the one I ate was really delicious! The sweetness is moderate, the filling is cheese, and it should be eaten while hot. Some others may be sweeter, and you can also buy bagged ones at the airport, which I quite like.
Shawarma: I ordered takeout, the Jordanian fast food set is Shawarma, fries and pickles, this roll is really delicious!
Falafel: Fried bean balls, and also made into sandwiches, I don't like it.
Finally, I want to emphasize that girls should be careful not to go alone, do not go to Jordan alone. Don't go to Rainbow St, there is really nothing, the small streets and alleys are extremely unsafe.
