Best Places To Visit In Jordan

Western travelers have been exploring the Middle East for more than a century, but Jordan is a relative newcomer to tourism, receiving only a fraction of those visiting neighboring Egypt and Israel. Its popular image abroad includes nothing more than camels and deserts, but the best places to visit in Jordan extend further to its beaches, castles and ancient churches, with an urbane people and rich culture. It's safe, comfortable and welcoming – and it's certainly the region's most rewarding destination.
