You leave Amman with the city receding behind you and the desert folding into canyon walls. By midmorning the road dips toward a narrow ravine where steam rises from ledges of rock and a low waterfall threads mineral-rich pools; the water gurgles as if nudging you toward a slow, warm submersion. The resort sits against a backdrop of limestone and basalt outcrops, the Dead Sea rim visible in the distance.
