Information about Jordan
There is much to see in Jordan, from the ruins of the ancient civilizations to the modern beauty of the capital. The ancient Nabataean city of Petra is a magnificent sight, one of the world's great 'lost cities' and one of Jordan's must-sees. Visit the city of Aljun, with its medieval castle, remnant of the Crusades, overlooking the city from a mountain. In Amman, the Jordanian capital, you can find anything. The city's heritage is rich, with many monuments from the Roman, Greek, and Byzantine eras, but it is also very modern and you can visit one of the big shopping centers or luxurious hotels. If you are looking for more of an adventure, you can trek the desert on a Camel with Bedouins and reach the Dead Sea.
