| 520 | |a This Globe Trekker episode follows Ian Wright through the Middle East from Jordan, where he attends a Bedouin wedding, rides a camel, and swims in the Dead Sea, through the ruins of Petra, to Beirut, where he rides with a motorbike brigade and talks to UN peacekeeping forces. He visits Baalbeck in the fertile Bekaa valley, a spectacular Roman temple that was a major place of worship sacred to the god Jupiter. Ian begins his visit to Syria in Damascus, where he observes the 'jumping sufis' experiencing religious ecstasy and relaxes in a Turkish bath before going shopping in a large outside market called a Souk. He is introduced to the world of the 'whirling dervishes', one of Islam's important mystical orders, inspired by the 13th-century poet Mevlana Rumi. Ian ends his journey at a peaceful desert monastery in the ancient Roman desert town Palmyra. | ||
