Find Cheap Flights to Jordan

Jordan is a land rich with historical heritage, offering some of the most exceptional sites in the world. Tourists to the country should not miss out visiting the red city of Petra, impressive remains of Jerash, magnetizing deserts of Wadi Rum, internationally renowned Dead Sea, and the Amman Citadel.

The city of Petra was founded by chiseling stone walls in Jordan; it is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its excellent ruins. Petra is a Greek word meaning ‘Stone.’ On your tour to the city, visit the Treasury; walk through Siq, a canyon that connects the city of Petra with the outside world. Strike up a conversation with Bedouins and know about Petra of the bygone era. Discover lesser-known ruins like Little Petra, ride a mule to the monastery, and soothe your muscles at hammam (Turkish Bath).

Jerash in Jordan is famous for its impressive Roman ruins. While here, visit the Temple of Artemis and the Forum with its large ionic columns, check out South Theatre, and North Theatre, and browse through artifacts at Jerash Archeological Museum. Also take a stroll along the Cardo, and shop for food items at city’s main food street, Agora.

For a truly breathtaking experience, visit Wadi Rum. With its panoramic beauty, Wadi Rum epitomizes the beauty of the desert with its granite and sandstone cliffs. The place homes several Bedouin tribes living in camps throughout the area. Experience the warmth of Bedouin hospitality by spending a night at Bedouin camp, watch the spectacular desert sunrise and sunsets, try out hiking, climbing and more. Wadi Rum is one of the most romantic places in the world, and offers an authentically Arabian experience.

Take a day trip to the Dead Sea, one of the most impressive natural landscapes in the world. The Dead Sea is called dead due to the extremely high content of salts and minerals, which makes it inhabitable for marine life. The waters of the Dead Sea have curative and therapeutic properties. Due to the hyper-salinity of water here, one can float easily in the Dead S Sea and enjoy a truly unique experience.

Located in the heart of Amman, Amman Citadel is a national historic site that sits on the highest hill in Amman. While here, tourists should check out Jordan Archaeological Museum, the Byzantine Church, Temple of Hercules and Umayyad Palace Complex.
