<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><strong>Weather of Arabia - Historically, Al-Majama&#39; Bridge was called</strong> the &quot;Al-Sanbra&quot; Bridge. It is located to the south of Lake Tiberias, about 5 km, and falls about 257 meters above sea level. Its political borders meet Jordan, Syria, and Palestine in a small area known as the Yarmouk Triangle, with an area of twenty thousand dunums.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Al-Majamee Bridge does not consist of a single bridge, as the wording of its name reflects. To collect these bridges in the same location.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> There is another interpretation of the name; It was called the &quot;Al-Majma&#39; Bridge&quot; because it combines the waters of the Yarmouk River with the waters of the Jordan River in the far northwestern corner of the Kingdom, and through it was the outlet for the waters of the two rivers together.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The history of Al-Majma’ Bridge dates back to three historical eras, which successively invested the crossing in separate periods. The first was in the Roman era when they built the old Roman bridge. Then, during the Ottoman state, a neighboring bridge was built. It is now visible and has the remains of the railway line as part of the line’s forks. The Hijazi Railway Daraa - Samakh - Beisan - Haifa, and after that, in the British Mandate authority, an English bridge overlapping with the Roman bridge was built, so there were three bridges in this place that were combined by the place, but separated by times, with the clarity of the remaining evidence of them (stones, iron, and ancient engineering contracts) that compose between them The water of the Jordan River, which flows under it with confidence, and reflects in the manifestations of its presence the momentum and amazement in the aesthetics of this spot, which is a natural mosaic in which the most beautiful scenes that an eye can fall upon are reflected, in a painting composed of green plants, trees, birds, water, warmth, purity of air and silence that has awe. Reflected by the sanctity of the river and the history of the place <span>.</span></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><br /> There, on the bridge, the locomotive of the Hijazi line is still on the rail that is part of it, while on the opposite bank of the river, on the other side of the bridge, appears the old Ottoman customs building, which is an ancient castle that still exists.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> And there is an integrated model for the electric power generation project for Palestine and Transjordan by benefiting from the waters of the Yarmouk River to its owner Pinhas Rotenberg, which was made and immortalized on this site for historical memorial purposes. </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2017/3333.gif" style="width: 650px; height: 592px;" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2017/66666.jpg" style="width: 650px; height: 520px;" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2017/uyi.jpg" style="width: 523px; height: 600px;" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2017/2222_0.jpg" style="width: 650px; height: 487px;" /></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <strong>References: Several historical references</strong></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p>
