At Maʿin, thermal water rises in the hills above Wadi Zarqa Maʿin and falls as a series of hot cascades into a gorge some 260 m below sea level. Bathers stand under the main waterfall; further pools and a Roman-style bath serve the adjoining resort.

Почему стоит поехать
Standing under a hot waterfall in a desert canyon is an unusual sensation, and the site is an easy detour from Madaba and the Dead Sea.

The springs have been used since antiquity and are traditionally identified with the baths visited by Herod the Great, who sought treatment at Callirrhoe nearby.
Практическая информация
Modest swimwear is expected; the public waterfall area is busiest on Fridays. The resort section requires a day pass.
Как добраться
About 30 minutes by car from Madaba on a steep descending road, or roughly an hour from Amman.
