Arad - the most pure city in the world

The city of Arad is also often referred to as the resort of the Dead Sea in Israel. It is located at an altitude of 600 m above sea level. The distance from Arad to Neve Zohar - 25 km and to the Ein-Bokek resort - 30 km. By the way, most of the staff of these resorts live in Arad. There are also wellness clinics, spa centers for some hotels, and rest can be less home if you rent apartments or a house.



Well maintained town of Arad

Pros:

  • On many tourist portals, there is information that from the point of view of environmental friendliness, according to UNESCO, Arad was recognized as the cleanest city on Earth. This is especially important for people with allergies and respiratory diseases.
  • Infrastructure of residential city. Accordingly, prices in stores and cafes are not overestimated by the tourist. At least there is no disadvantage in the presence of these institutions.
  • The choice is among large number housing in different price range. These are not only hotels, but also guest houses, cottages, apartments where you can arrange a home family holiday.
  • The air here is land, astmatics breathe easier.
  • Rest and treatment in Arad (with trips to Dead Sea.) It can cost cheaper than Ein-Bokek. Especially the difference will be felt in case of staying on the coastal resorts for more than a week.
  • The decent part of the city's population is Russian-speaking Israelis.

Minuses:

  • One and very big minus - the distance from the shore is 25 km away. Actually, because of this, it is difficult to call Arad to the resort of the Dead Sea. This problem is solved in three ways: 1) car rental; 2) agreement with the owner of housing about delivery for free or for a small fee on its transport; 3) public transportThe resorts of the Dead Sea go buses 384, 421 - 16 spans. ($ 4.2) to Neva-Zohar, 21.5 Shek. (5.6 $) to Ein-Bokek (I look at the schedule the website carrier Egged.).

⚠ Some believe that the road from the Dead Sea to Arad is very difficult and serpentine. As for me, there is nothing terrible in it: a good, wide, looping road with beautiful species.


Accommodation in Arad. Can be found in several ways:

  • Rent a hotel online. For those who do not know how this is done, I prepared an article :.
  • Rent an apartment or a house from a private owner through the Airbnb site. To get a $ 15-35 reservation discount (shares change periodically, they can soon cancel), you must first register of this invitation link. After that, to dial "Arad" in the search box and choose the estimated recreation dates. Offers on this site can not but rejoice. We ourselves have repeatedly removed apartments through Eirbiengi, including in Israel, and also successfully saved, using a discount. Our experience described in the article :.

Where better to rest on the Dead Sea - my conclusions

My opinion is such that if you go to the Dead Sea for one day without a night, you can stay in any of the above resorts and hotels, depending on your location and transport where you move. For 2-3 days, the kibbutzi Ein-Gedi, Neve Zohar and Ein-Bokek will be suitable. For the treatment and rest for a period of more than three days, I would choose the resort of Ein-Bokek or the neighboring chame Zohar (1 km from Kibbutz Neva Zohar) with their hotels operating on all inclusive system or "half board". If not fundamentally accommodation on the seashore, then for rest and treatment for a long period, I unambiguously considered the city of Arad.

Be sure to read the article about, in which I told detailed about possible travel costs.

One side Dead Sea - IsraelAnd on the other - Jordan, it covers an area of \u200b\u200babout 1000 square kilometers. Located 400 meters below the World Ocean, it is considered the lowest place on Earth. The Dead Sea is part of a huge tectonic depression, which formed millions of years ago as a result of the fault of the earth's crust.

Increased atmospheric pressure, high air temperature All year round (30 ° -40 ° C in summer, 19 ° C in winter), 330 sunny days, rare precipitation (50 mm per year), low humidity (35%) create a unique climate here. Air is saturated with oxygen and bromine. Permanent lightweight haze formed from intense saline evaporation acts as a filter that delays harmful ultraviolet rays.

But if you have sunbathe on the Dead Sea, it is not possible to all, then the mineral cosmetics produced with it sooner or later pay your attention.

On the healing properties of the Dead Sea mentioned in the Bible.
It is known that the legendary Egyptian queen Cleopatra in the search for beauty and eternal youth drew her eyes towards the Dead Sea and Mark Anthony won the city on the shore of this no less legendary reservoir. Here they built the first "spa" - the water-shakes for Roman warriors and set up the production of cosmetic drugs, as evidenced by the remnants of the factory cleared by archaeologists. Savskaya also used the Minerals of the Dead Sea in therapeutic and cosmetics purposes.
Millenniums are groundwater, numerous thermal sources, mountain streams and the Jordan River carried in the Dead Sea of \u200b\u200bSalts and Minerals, Washed out of rocks, sand and soil. Within 330 hot sunny days a year, the water evaporated, and the salts were accumulated: it is not surprising that today the concentration of salts in the Dead Sea is 10 times higher than in the water of the seas and oceans.
The useful minerals of the Dead Sea contribute to the removal of pain caused by arthritis, rheumatism, psoriasis, eczema, stress and other diseases, while nourishing the skin and give it softness.
The geological and climatic conditions of the Dead Sea, this lightweight lake, also created the dirt of a special kind.

However, these crystals are only the tourists admire them.
For the production of cosmetics of salt are evaporated in special pools, which are called "frying pan" here. Dirt extracted from the seabed to shovels. So that it does not oxidize and preserved its healing properties as much as possible, it is immediately packaged in special containers and immediately deliver to the factory.

Thirsty to know the unique healing properties of the Dead Sea waiting for the guests of hospitable Israel! Although to be to the end of an objective then this worldwide resort entails not only wanting to strengthen their shaking health, but also just lovers beach holidays And lovers of antiquity deep!

Ein-bucked is, without exaggeration will be said, the worldwide health resort for people coming here from all over the corners.

Despite the summer heat (sometimes the temperature rises to + 37) the burns on the body cannot be obtained due to increased evaporation of salt water, as a result, in the air are constantly present by aerosols delaying harmful ultraviolet radiation.

The water temperature (amazing turquoise color) ranges from + 17 in winter to + 35 in summer.

This resort itself is unique as it is in the lowest point of our planet. But that's not all. Around Ein-Bokki full of fully places mentioned in the Bible and Mount Sodom is one of them.

Another attraction resort - famous Massada fortress, allegedly built by Herod Great himself.

In addition to all of their attractions, Ein-Bowkore also modern city With all the available blessing benefits, one of which is available shopping in large shopping centers, such as Petra Shopping Center and Ein Bokek Shopping Center.

In my opinion, the only minus chroot is that with the onset of the night, the so-called "continuation of the banquet" can be found only in the Olive's night pub, which works until 02:00.
