If the highest part of the land is a mountaintop, where do you think the lowest place must be ? That's right - in a valley. The lowest bit of dry land in the world is the Valley of the Dead Sea, between Jordan and Israel, in the Near East. The land there is 1,299 feet (396 meters) below the level of the nearby Mediterranean Sea.
The Valley of the Dead Sea was not made by a river, as many valleys are. It is foult - a large strip of the earth's crust that has sunk down.
