The Baptism site is where John the Baptist baptized Jesus. It's only a couple miles north of the Dead Sea on the Jordan River. I use the term river, but it is more like a creek since much of the water is now diverted. The Jordan River is also the international frontier between Jordan and Palestine, but Israelis still control the border.
