The Jordan Valley (Hebrew: עמק הירדן) (Emek Hayarden) forms part of the larger Jordan Rift Valley. It is 120 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide, where it runs from Lake Tiberias in the north to northern Dead Sea in the south. It runs for an additional 155 kilometer south of the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba at Aquaba, an area also known as Wadi Arabah or the Arava valley (see separate tag). It forms the border between Israel and Jordan in the north, and the eastern strip of the West Bank in the south. In 2009, the population of the Jordan Valley was 400,000.
