Israel, the Dead Sea-Salt sediments on the western shore, looking south

The Dead Sea is a landlocked salt lake in the Jordan Rift Valley, on the border between Israel and Jordan. At 422 meters below sea level, it is the lowest elevation on the Earth's surface on dry land. It is also one of the world's saltiest bodies of water. Seen here are salt sediments on the western shore, looking south. The Judea Mountains are in the background.
