The GEM Complex is presently granting restricted entry to assess site preparedness and the visitor encounter before the formal unveiling. Access is presently confined to the Main Galleries, Grand Hall, Grand Staircase, commercial premises, and outdoor gardens.

The mineral-rich mud found here is utilized for both health and beauty treatments. Legends speak of Queen Cleopatra and Sheba recognizing the healing benefits of this location. Due to its extreme salinity, no organisms can thrive in its waters, hence earning the name Dead Sea, where effortless floating is a unique experience. Get ready to indulge in a relaxing swim and mud therapy session before returning to Amman.
