Amman

Overview

Jordan’s capital, Amman, is a remarkable city of contrasts, a singular fusion of old and contemporary, perched on a hill between the Jordan Valley’s fertile soil and the desert beyond. Traditional coffee shops and small artisan workshops coexist peacefully with ultra-modern buildings, hotels, restaurants, art galleries, and boutiques in the city’s commercial center. The cultural and historical backdrop of Amman’s neighborhoods varies, ranging from the vibrant downtown markets to the contemporary Abdali shopping district and the art galleries of Jabal Al Lweibdeh.It is situated in a basin encircled by mountains that forms the eastern flank of the Arabah valley, which stretches from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba, next to the peak known as Jabal Al-Madbah.The Khazneh can be reached immediately from the Siq, a 1.2-kilometer gorge known for its stunning views, providing access to the city. The area around Petra has been inhabited from as early as 7000 BC.
