Dead Sea Panoramic Complex

Opened by the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature, the Dead Sea Panoramic Complex commands some of the most spectacular views in Jordan. It also boasts a very good restaurant (run by the Evason Ma’in hotel) and a small museum dedicated to the Dead Sea. The restaurant’s best tables, when the weather is not too hot, are out on the terrace. In addition to its exhibits on ecology, geology and conservation, the museum features displays on the area’s residents, their civilizations and cultures and a fine gift shop. The complex is open 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.; the restaurant is open from noon to midnight.
