Sahara in Libya
The hottest place on Earth is in Sahara, Libya. Here there was recorded the highest temeperature in the world: 58 degrees Celsius in the shade. But for constantly high temperatures we recommend the Ethiopian Danakil Valley, where temperatures that go over 55 degrees are encountered frequently. I mean almost every day. Very rarely and only at night, the mercury in thermometers drops below 35 degrees Celsius. As a bonus, the atmosphere is filled with helium and other gases from the active volcanoes in the area. To be mentioned that there has not been invented a sunscreen for such rays yet and that dehydration is a real cause, a very real and probable one, for death. But if you ever get to see Danakil, your stories will surely begin with "I had the hottest holiday ..."
