Oases are generally called such places which are surrounded by greenery even though they are present in the middle of a desert.

Between 2003 and 2009, the maximum temperature was found to be 70.7 degrees from the measurements made by the American Space Agency NASA through satellite.

Death hides in this desert of Dasht-e Loot. If a person reaches here by mistake, then only God will have to come to the ground to save him, otherwise, his death is certain.
4. Wadi Halfa, Iran
Iran is also present in our top fourth location. The Iranian city of Wadi Halfa is located in Sudan on the shores of Lake Nubia. It does not rain here at all throughout the year.

3. Dallol, Ethiopia
One of the hottest places in the world is also the city of Dallol in Ethiopia. It is known for its hydrothermal fields containing salt, acidic hot springs, and gas formations. Not only this, the reason for the high temperature of Dallol is the active volcanoes present there. Between 1960 and 1966, the average temperature here is 41 degrees.
Dallol is the most hottest place in the World for people living on Earth. Although the temperature is different everywhere in winter and the temperature in summer is different, Dallol is such a place where there is no avoidance of any kind of weather and the temperature here remains above 45 degrees. Due to such high temperatures, the water of the rivers and ponds present here keeps on boiling all the time.
2. Aziziyah, Libya
Aziziyah was previously the capital of Jafra Province, which is located 25 miles (41 km) southwest of Tripoli. Aziziyah was once the hottest place on earth. When in the year 1922, the highest temperature recorded here was 58 degrees. However, it was later considered a false claim and due to a lack of proper information, it was removed from the top place of the hottest place in the year 2012.
In today’s time, few cities in the world are hotter and drier than Aziziyah in Libya. During the summer, the temperature of the place still remains above 48 degrees Celsius.
1. Death Valley, California
Death Valley has been ranked number one on our list. Death is in its name. Death Valley in the US province of California was the highest temperature in the world recorded. Friends, although it is always hot here, in the year 1913, the highest temperature of Death Valley was recorded at 56.7 degrees, in which it is impossible for any human to survive. This is really the valley of death.
The circumstances are even such that here you will find ghost towns from place to place, where there are only houses, but there is no one to live in. In this Death Valley of America, the rain is almost negligible, due to which a drop of water cannot be found even after searching far and wide.
Even today, the average temperature remains 47 degrees during the summer in Death Valley and it is also the driest place in the whole of America. Now such a dangerous place where no one will be able to survive. So it would not be wrong at all to say the place Death Valley
