Why visit Jordan?

For 10,000 years travelers have marveled the majestic archaeological sites and natural wonders of hospitable Jordan. The abundance of unique sights across the land is only but a reflection of the rich culture heritage of the Kingdom. Visitors are enchanted, mystified and captivated by the famous rose-red Nabatean city of Petra; Greco-Roman temples and cities; Crusader and Umayyad castles; the spectacular deserts made famous by Lawrence of Arabia; innumerable biblical sites identified with Job, Moses, Elijah, John the Baptist and Jesus Christ; the Red Sea and the Dead Sea; and the capital city of Amman- a fascinating mixture of ancient and modern contrasts.

Jordan offers venues that cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world for special events and theme parties; a wide selection of adventures from 4 X 4 trips through the deserts; climbing and hiking; camel caravans; diving in the clear waters of the Red Sea; and “Green Tourism” through protected attractions and nature reserves.

There's shopping for rugs, antiques and handicrafts native to Jordan; a large choice of 5-star deluxe hotels; relaxing spas with treatments based on local and European products and an array of Arabic restaurants for a taste of delicious Jordanian specialties as well as fine international restaurants with menus to please every palate.
Jordan offers myriad unique venues for special events and fascinating possibilities for theme parties.

The Jordan Archeological Museum boasts an excellent collection of antiquities ranging from prehistoric times to the 15th century, including an exhibit of the Dead Sea Scrolls and four Iron Age anthropo-morphic coffins.

In Greco-Roman times, Amman was known as Philadelphia, it was named after the Roman emperor Philadelphus. Prior to that it was known as Rabbath-Ammon.

Amman consists of an old and more traditional part called "City Centre" or "Downtown" (in Arabic 'Balad'), and a modern more vibrant western style "West Amman".

Amman is one of the oldest continuously occupied cities in the world.
