Ten kilometers to the north, the road from Umm Qais winds down toward the Yarmouk River and the Golan where it ends at the baths of Hemma. There, Roman holiday makers sought rejuvenation and vitality from these health-giving hot springs. These are open to modern-day travelers as well. The main hot spring, whose mineral-rich waters are a warm 57ºC, pours into an indoor pool. A number of chalets are also available for rent within the complex. The Hemma facilities have been renovated, and are now available for tourists. For updated information, contact the Ministry of Tourism (tel. 06-4642-311). | | Hot springs at Hemma. © Zohrab |
