Dead Sea Panorama Complex
مجمع بانوراما البحر الميت
A viewpoint complex on the cliffs above the hotel strip, overlooking the entire Dead Sea, with a small museum, a restaurant and sunsets as the main draw.
مجمع بانوراما البحر الميت sits on the mountain road south of the Sweimeh hotel strip, leading to the hot springs. The platform is about 400 metres above the lake and overlooks the deep blue Dead Sea and the Judean Mountains beyond. At sunset the water turns golden red. The complex includes a small Dead Sea museum explaining the lake’s geological origins, falling water levels and ecology, and the restaurant terrace has excellent views. Short trails such as the Zara and Wadi Himara walks are nearby. Entry costs about 2–3 JOD. A private car or hired vehicle is needed to get there.
Opening hours
Approx. 09:00 until sunset (museum approx. until 17:00)
