Dead Sea

Without a doubt the world’s most amazing place, the Jordan Rift Valley is a dramatic, beautiful landscape, which at the Dead Sea, is over 400m (1,312 ft.) below sea level. The lowest point on the face of the earth, this vast, stretch of water receives a number of incoming rivers, including the River Jordan. Once the waters reach the Dead Sea they are land-locked and have nowhere to go, so they evaporate, leaving behind a dense, rich, cocktail of salts and minerals that supply industry, agriculture and medicine with some of its finest products.

Jerash

A close second to Petra on the list of favourite destinations in Jordan is the ancient city of Jerash, which boasts an unbroken chain of human occupation dating back more than 6,500 years.

Jerash lies on a plain surrounded by hilly wooded areas and fertile basins. Conquered by General Pompey in 63 BC, it came under Roman rule and was one of the ten great Roman cities of the Decapolis League.

Petra

Migrating from Arabia and arriving in the sixth century BCE (Before Common Era), the Nabateans were a nomadic tribe, who abandoned their itinerant ways and settled across southern Jordan, northern Arabia and the Naqab desert. They chose Petra, the famous desert city carved from red limestone, as their capital. Petra had been previously occupied, but it was the fantastic and magnificent temples, palaces and tombs, which the Nabateans carved from solid rock, that made Petra's name
