Petra

Petra, the ‘rose red city’, the city ‘half as old as time’, one of the ‘Seven Wonders of the World’, was carved out of the rocky southern Jordanian desert by the Nabateans over 2000 years ago. What was then the capital of the Nabatean Kingdom, was lost for 2000 years until it was rediscovered 200 years ago by a Swedish explorer. Actually it is the reason that many travellers come to Jordan in the first place. 

If your scheule is right, you may see the inspiring scene of Petra at night, it happens on every Monday, Wednesday and Thursday of each week, starts at 20:30.


Quseir Amra
One of the best-preserved desert buildings of the Umayyads, Qusayr Amra is the highlight of a trip into the Eastern Desert. Part of a much greater complex that served as a caravanserai, bathhouse and hunting lodge. The frescoes in the castle is also another important feature of the castle, which depict the life of the earlier settlers in the region.

It is home to 16 historic churches, secret crypts, and towering stone archways. It has survived undisturbed for 1200 years and has a high level of authenticity.

Baptism Site "Bethany Beyond The Jordan" (Al-Maghtas)
Revered by religious locals and travelers, Jordan's Al Maghtas is thought by many to be the spot where Jesus was baptized.The baptism site was only rediscovered after the Israel-Jordan peace treaty, when mine-clearing operations exposed the ancient riverbed. Sandstone walls dating back to the first century A.D. still bear rudimentary crosses etched by early pilgrims who stopped here on their route from Jerusalem to Mount Nebo. Over the centuries, medieval saints, monks, and scribes continued to affirm this as the site of the baptism. 



[Historical Ruins]

Jerash

Whether you are after history, you will be drawn by its original grandeur which is quite easy to image by those remains in Jerash. One of the best preserved Roman ruins in the world---------The ancient city of Jerash just cannot be missed, step back to in time here!


Ajloun Castle
The Ajloun Castle,a 12th-century Muslim castle, stands 1,100 meters above sea level atop a hill. It has seven towers built of limestone blocks cut from the moat around the castle.It is well preserved with the interior very much intact and the incredible views over the Jordan Valley are worthy to climb!


Roman Theatre
This magnificently restored theatre is the most obvious and impressive remnant of Roman Philadelphia, was probably built in the 2nd century AD during the reign of Antoninus Pius (AD 138–61). The theatre itself is cut into the northern side of a hill, and has a seating capacity of 6000. The best time for photographs is the morning, when the light is soft – although the views from the top tiers just before sunset are also superb.


Amman Citadel
The Amman Citadel, located in the heart of modern-day Amman, is an impressive site that helps tell the story of this region’s layered heritage.It is also the site of one of ACOR’s most impactful undertakings to date: the excavation and partial restoration of the Great Temple of Amman, also known as the Temple of Hercules.


Karak Castle
The famous Crusader stronghold Karak (or Kerak), later a Mamluk fortress, is an impressive example of military architecture, built on top of a ridge, separated from the old fortified town by a deep moat.Views are far-reaching, even as far as the Dead Sea, and the castle held a pivotal role in the heart of a line of Crusader defences that stretched from the Red Sea all the way to Turkey. 


St George’s Church Madaba
This rather modest Greek Orthodox church houses a treasure of early Christianity. It was built in 1896 AD, over the remains of a much earlier 6th century Byzantine church. It hosts the famous mosaic map of the holy land. With two million pieces of vividly coloured local stone, it depicts hills and valleys, villages and towns as far as the Nile Delta.


Jordan Desert Castles
Beside the UNESCO site Quseir Amra, there are still many castles located in the middle of deserts. All the castles date to different periods and are in varying states of repair – Qasr al-Hallabat is of Nabatean and Roman origin, Qasr Amra and Qasr Kharana date to the Umayyad period and Qasr al-Azraq was built during Ayyubid rule and remained in use until the early 20th century when it served as a refuge for TE Lawrence. 


Umm Qais 
In the hills above the Jordan Valley, situated the ruins of the Decapolis city of Gadara, now called Umm Qais. The site is striking because of its juxtaposition of Roman ruins with an abandoned Ottoman-era village, as well as its tremendous vantage point, with views of three countries (Jordan, Syria, and Israel and the Palestinian Territories), encompassing the Golan Heights, Mt Hermon and the Sea of Galilee.


Mountain NeBo
Regardless of whether you have religious beliefs or not. It is quite logical to feel like you are walking in a legendary tale when travelling in the Middle East. Heading to the Mt Nebo, one of the Biblical sights, the spot where Moses allegedly first glimpsed the Promised Land after having led the Israelites out of slavery in Egypt, will you sense a spirit that cross the barrier of time and dimensions?



[Natural Lanscape]

Dana Biosphere Reserve

Dead Sea
Undoubtedly floating in the Dead Sea is one of the best things to do in this contry. It’s hard to imagine just how fun the feeling of weightlessness in a salt lake between Jordan and Israel at one of the lowest points on earth covered in mud really is until you’re there! A mud bath is second fun thing you can do here, knowing of let those minerals sneak in your skin with beneficial effects while you keep the mud at least 15 minutes.


Ma'In Hot Springs
Maybe the entire Middle East area looks so dusty and dry, but it does not mean there is probably no any thing related to beautiful aters beside Dead Sea and Red Sea in Jordan. The most famous thermal spring in the hills above the Dead Sea is ranging from 45°C to a blistering 60°C, tumbles off the hillside in a series of waterfalls and less assuming trickles, and is collected in a variety of pools for public bathing.


Wadi Mujib
At 410 meters below sea level, the Mujib Biosphere Reserve is the lowest nature reserve on Earth. Its rugged and spectacular mountains border the Dead Sea coast and are dissected by several river-filled canyons that offer the best river and adventure hikes in Jordan. The breathtaking scenery and the challenge of negotiating Mujib’s fast-flowing rivers make the Reserve one of Jordan’s most popular natural attractions.


Azraq wetland reserve
It is a unique wetland, located in the heart of the arid Eastern Desert, which takes its name from the Arabic word for ‘blue’. A migratory stopover for birds from three continents, Azraq is becoming increasingly popular for bird watching. From the walkways and hides, visitors get the chance to observe birds close at hand, including local, migratory and occasional rare species.


Ajloun forest reserve
Located in the Ajloun Highlands, this small (just 13 sq km) but vitally important nature reserve was established by the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature (RSCN) in 1988 to protect oak, carob, pistachio and strawberry-tree forests. It is also a wildlife sanctuary for many endangered animals.


Red Sea - Aqaba Gulf
