Stop At: The Baptism Site Of Jesus Christ, Site, Juwafat al-Kafrayn Jordan

The Baptism Site of Jesus Christ, also known as Bethany Beyond the Jordan or Al-Maghtas, is an archaeological World Heritage Site in Jordan. It is located on the east bank of the Jordan River, north of the Dead Sea, and is believed to be the place where Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist.

The site has been venerated as a pilgrimage destination since at least the Byzantine period, and there are many ruins of churches and monasteries from that time. In recent years, archaeological excavations have uncovered even more evidence of early Christian activity at the site, including caves used by hermits and a baptismal pool.

The Baptism Site is open to the public and is a popular destination for both Christian pilgrims and tourists. There is a museum on site that tells the story of the baptism of Jesus, and there are also guided tours available.

Al-Maghtas, meaning "baptism" or "immersion" in Arabic, holds immense religious significance for Christians worldwide.

We have a lovely experience, our driver Muhammad Bardaghawi is friendly and knowledgeable. On the way to Baptism site and Dead Sea, he told us a lot about Jordan. He let us stopped several times to take photos. And on the way back to Amman, we stopped at a shop that sells Dead Sea’s products where we bought some presents for our family. Thank you Muhammad

Super nice guide with good air conditioned car and safe driving took us first to the Baptism site and on to Holiday Inn for (too much) lunch and Dead Sea bathing experience. Highly recomend the trip, good guides at Bethany beyond the Jordan and pleasent helpful staff at the hotel.
