The place of the baptism of John the Baptist, there are many small fish swimming in this river that tickle your feet while swimming. Many pilgrims come to this place - on the border of Israel and Jordan, to plunge into the waters considered holy according to the Bible. Even in winter, in January, having plunged headlong three times, you do not feel the cold at all. Prayers in many languages of the world are written on the walls at the entrance.

It's very atmospheric there. There is a large gift shop on site, there is a lot of choice, there is something to look out for. You buy a shirt, go down to the Jordan and take a dip. The water is warm, if anything, there are some strange fish swimming there that start pecking at your heels. Do not be afraid, well, they say you get a free peeling. The Jordan is a shallow river, but it's beautiful and worth it. If you're on Kinneret, drop by

The place is simply extraordinary. You can plunge into the Jordan itself. There are a lot of fish swimming in the water and when you start feeding them, the water boils from them. Hefty catfish rise from the depths. Interestingly, Jordan has a different chemical composition than Lake Keneret from which it flows. That is, the river flows through the lake! According to legend, Christ was baptized not here, but significantly lower down the river closer to the Dead Sea. This is understandable, John the Baptist lived in the Judean desert, and Yardenite is a very comfortable place, even in ancient times. But it is very convenient for pilgrims and tourists.

He was baptized here. Although everyone understands that Christ was baptized in the lower part of the river, in the area of the dead Sea, and went from there to the desert (where it begins)

The place is the baptism of Jesus Christ, revered by all religions...What a blessing this is!..I will not mention that the waters of the Jordan are simply boiling with various living creatures...It was only in my native Sarov that I experienced this thrill, having plunged three times into the waters of the Holy River...Visit and you will not regret that you were here...There are enough memories for the rest of your life...

A small place near Tiberias. According to legend, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River, which flows in this place (although this is a controversial issue).There are a lot of tourists.Most of them want to dive into the waters of the river.
A beautiful place, near palm groves.Lots of greenery.

Yes, I recognized this place! How can you not like a shrine!? The words like and dislike do not fit here. Here you experience the grace, the thrill of coming into contact with history! I was surprised by the fish that scurry around my feet!

It seems like a holy place, but everything is Jewish. It is better to arrive early in the morning or after 14.00. The fish arrange pilling, for believers - supposedly the holy waters of Jordan, although this is the Gulf of Kinneret. In the morning, a fish is playing, I saw Israeli poachers from the opposite shore, looking around, dragging meter-long fish, I did not recognize the breed of fish, but some kind of predator.

How can you swim in this swamp? Is grace only in the dirt? The water is teeming with all sorts of God-awful animals.

The place is extraordinary, but very impressive. Believers who are interested in history and culture should come here. The rest will be disappointed.

A wonderful place where God's mercy to people is clearly felt. However, there is a lot of commerce.

The place is cool, of course, but I don't want to go into the water. Musky ducks, large catfish swim and there is a strong smell of bleach. Probably the water from the showers drains directly into the Jordan.
