Discovering the beautiful country of Jordan
Jordan is a country situated in the Middle East. It is known for its rich history and diverse geography. From the ancient Petra city to the Dead Sea and the Wadi Rum desert, Jordan boasts some of the most breathtaking landscapes and historical sites in the world.
Visitors to Jordan can explore the ancient ruins of the Roman city Jerash or the mosaic-filled Madaba church. The Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth, provides an unforgettable experience for swimmers and spa lovers. While Wadi Rum, the vast desert covering large areas of Jordan, is a popular destination for adventure seekers and hikers.

Experience Jordan's culture and traditions
The people of Jordan are famous for their hospitality and generosity. They are welcoming to visitors and eager to share their culture and traditions. The community is a mix of Bedouins, Circassians, and Chechens, which has given rise to a rich and diverse culture. Traditional dances such as Dabke and Shamadan are performed during weddings and public celebrations. Visitors can also learn about the Bedouin way of life by staying in a Bedouin camp and experiencing their food and customs.
Islam is the predominant religion in Jordan, but other faiths are represented as well. The country is home to some of the most significant religious sites, including the place of Jesus' baptism and Mount Nebo, where Moses is said to have seen the Promised Land. The Jordanian way of life is a rich blend of ancient customs and modern influences, making it a unique experience for visitors.
