Jordan

Jordan, officially known as the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, is a country located in the West Asia region, bordering Syria, Iraq, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the Red Sea. The capital of the country is Amman, and the largest city is Aqaba. Jordan is a dry country surrounded by hills and mountains in the Levant region. In addition, Jordan has many famous attractions such as the ancient city of Petra, the Dead Sea, the Jordan River Valley mentioned in the Old Testament, and the tourist destination of Oman. These attractions make Jordan a popular tourist destination. Jordan is a traditionally monarchic country, and King Abdullah II is the monarch. The official language of the country is Arabic, and the majority of the population practices Islam. Jordan's economy is mainly based on tourism, chemical industry, agriculture, and mineral extraction, and the country is also a commercial center in the Middle East. In terms of politics, Jordan has always been one of the relatively stable countries in the Middle East, and it has a place in Middle Eastern and international affairs. As a country that follows Islamic law, Jordan has a deep understanding and appreciation of Islamic culture and traditions, and also supports and promotes the harmonious development of Islam. My itinerary started from Dubai to Amman, Jordan. The next day, I went to Jerash, which can be reached by charter or by taking a minibus from the North Station. Jerash has preserved a large number of ancient Roman ruins, and the rise and fall of ancient Rome can be seen in the ruins. After returning from Jerash, I visited the ancient Roman theater and Citadel Hill in Amman. The next day, I went to Petra and chatted with a Dutch guy on the way. Petra is a very large ancient city, and it can be tiring to walk around, but overall it was manageable. Continuing down from Petra, I arrived at Wadi Rum, which is famous for its red desert and is the most Mars-like place on this planet. I stayed in the desert for one night and saw the starry sky that I hadn't seen in a long time. The local Bedouin people were very hospitable, and there were people from all over the world in the tents. Continuing down from Petra, you will arrive at Aqaba, the only port city in Jordan, a small town different from other cities in Amman. Finally, I went to the Dead Sea to experience floating. If you have wounds on your body, you will float especially easily.

Amman's Roman Theatre

Amman's Roman Theatre is a 6,000-seat, 2nd-century Roman theatre. A famous landmark in the Jordanian capital, it dates back to the Roman period when the city was known as Philadelphia.

A day of fun in Amman, Jordan, with a beautiful sunset on Castle Hill

A day of fun in Amman, Jordan, with a beautiful sunset on Castle Hill. I went to Jordan, a very impressive niche travel destination, and I think half a day is enough for the capital, Amman. Castle Hill in Amman Recommended to go at sunset, you can see the beautiful sunset in Jordan, the sky is pink. Roman open-air theater You can overlook it from Castle Hill, and there is a square in front of the theater. Amman Market Personally, I like to visit local markets when I travel, where I can feel the atmosphere, visit souvenir shops, eat snacks, I bought a sunset sand painting from Jordan, which is in a bottle. Remember to bargain when shopping. Snacks: Arab coffee: You can see that it is heated with boiling sand, served in a disposable paper cup, the taste is very unique, with a strong spice flavor. Kanafeh is a well-known Middle Eastern dessert, with various shapes, all sprinkled with crushed pistachios, the one I ate was really delicious! The sweetness is moderate, the filling is cheese, and it should be eaten while hot. Some others may be sweeter, and you can also buy bagged ones at the airport, which I quite like. Shawarma: I ordered takeout, the Jordanian fast food set is Shawarma, fries and pickles, this roll is really delicious! Falafel: Fried bean balls, and also made into sandwiches, I don't like it. Finally, I want to emphasize that girls should be careful not to go alone, do not go to Jordan alone. Don't go to Rainbow St, there is really nothing, the small streets and alleys are extremely unsafe.

#raed

Under the eyes of God, it is clear that two distinct cities are distinguished. In the eastern part of the city, an ancient city is located in the center of the city. The rolling hills and hills line the dense yellow and white houses, and the ancient traditions and conservative pulse are everywhere. Looking at the western part of the city, luxury villas, shopping malls and reinforced concrete urban forests occupy most of the chapters, and it is reminiscent of the modern look that has flourished. Sunset may be the best time to enjoy Amman, and as the sunset changes, the white buildings of the city will shine more and more in the fading warmth. The ancient Roman theater under the Castle Hill in the old town was also taken back by the sun. In addition to the spectacular day, it began to become lonely and mysterious. People gathered in twos and threes to listen to the prayers from the distant mosque. The huge city propaganda posters are no longer eye-catching, fading away the sense of distance during the day, and telling the moving stories of the city in the dark.

😍 FLOATING time at DEAD SEA 🌊

#beachaholic Most famous beach in the world - Dead Sea 🌊! The Dead Sea, a natural wonder, offers an unparalleled beach experience. Nestled between Jordan and Israel, its beaches are anything but ordinary. The water is so densely saturated with salt and minerals that you can effortlessly float on the surface. These minerals, believed to have therapeutic properties, also transform the shore into a natural spa retreat. Slathering yourself with the thick, mineral-rich mud and then rinsing in the calm sea is indeed an experience of a lifetime. Beyond the beach, the extraordinary landscape, dominated by hilly terrains and stark desert beauty, unfolds. The Dead Sea, with its unique aquatic environment and captivating surroundings, provides an enchanting escape unlike any other beach destination.

This is the Dead Sea

The Rose City of Petra ✨

Petra has also been referred to as the “Rose City” because of the colour of the stones used in its buildings. It was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985 I checked off my second Jordan bucket list here, which is to see The Treasury (Al-Khazneh). To get here, you first walk the 1.2km long Siq, a narrow gorge that serves as the entrance to Petra. I recommend spending two days here because the place is massive and there is so much to see in Petra. Top tip: take pictures on your way back from the trails around 5 pm when people start leaving. Best months to visit April and September 😎 #本地遊#awesomepic#2023travelwish

Petra-Jordan

Petra is a famous archaeological site in Jordan's southwestern desert. Dating to around 300 B.C., it was the capital of the Nabatean Kingdom. Accessed via a narrow canyon called Al Siq, it contains tombs and temples carved into pink sandstone cliffs, earning its nickname, the "Rose City." Perhaps its most famous structure is 45m-high Al Khazneh, a temple with an ornate, Greek-style facade, and known as The Treasury.
