Amman is one of the trendiest cities in the Middle East. You’ll find lots of great neighbourhoods here that are certainly worth a visit. Why not head to the old city, Jabal Amman, where you’ll find traditional coffee houses, restaurants and a colourful market? If you love art, you have to visit the Jabal al-Weibdeh neighbourhood, on the western hill. Here you can marvel at historic buildings and modern art galleries. Whichever direction you walk in, you’ll come across beautiful mosaics and murals.
If you’re interested in learning more about Amman’s history, you simply have to visit the old citadel. Climb to the top of the city’s highest hill and enjoy the spectacular view. Admire the citadel and walk past the many historical ruins, including the Temple of Hercules, the Umayyad complex, the Umayyad Palace and the Byzantine church. On the way back, stop off at the old Roman theatre at the foot of the Amman Citadel. Not only is the theatre a popular tourist attraction, but the amphitheatre also continues to be used for shows and performances to this day.
You can book guided tours from Amman to some amazing places. While you’re in Jordan, a visit to Wadi Rum is absolutely essential. It is an enormous valley in the south of the country. You can discover the impressive landscape on a camel tour or by booking a 4x4 jeep tour. If you want to spend the night somewhere different, you will be warmly welcomed at the many tent camps in the desert. When darkness falls, you will be amazed by the magical, starry sky. It’s a night you will never forget! Round off your holiday with a visit to the city of Petra, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. There are an incredible number of things to discover in this desert city and you can easily spend two whole days here.
