2) The Dead Sea

Rich in history, the salty Dead Sea is considered the world’s original health resort. For centuries, people have been visiting the Dead Sea to bathe in its mineral waters hoping to cure a wide array of ailments. If you would like to take a dip, you may have to hurry. In the last 40 years, the lake has shrunk approximately 30 percent and sunk 80 feet. If things continue at this rate, the Dead Sea is predicted to be gone in 50 years.
