Jordan, Middle East

The Unmissable Sights of Jordan, Middle East
Jordan, or the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan as it is officially known, is home to some of the Middle East's most spectacular and unmissable sights.
From dramatic desert landscapes and ruined Roman cities to powerful biblical sites and a wonder of the modern world, Jordan is full of wonders.
Add to this its ancient culture and a friendly population, not to mention modern, diverse Arab cities, and you have a fantastic destination.
The country is bordered by Israel and the West Bank to the west, Syria to the north, Iraq to the east and Saudi Arabia to the south.
It is almost completely land-locked apart from a small outlet on the Red Sea in the Gulf of Aqaba and a frontage on the Dead Sea.
Amman is the capital and largest city of Jordan and forms a modern bustling metropolis that can also boast to being one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world.
Originally built on seven hills it now spans an area of nineteen hills as its estimated two million strong population continues to grow at a staggering pace.
While Amman has a number of sites to interest tourists, such as the largest Roman theatre in Jordan, with room for 6,000 spectators, the city is a perfect base for exploring other parts of the country.
Umm Qais located on the site of the ruined Hellenistic-Roman city of Gadara, is a frequent destination for day trips from Amman.
It's popular not only because of its extensive ruins but also due to its position on a high hill and the panoramic views this provides.
Israel and the Golan Heights, which are claimed by and recognized by Syria but which have been under Israeli administration since the Six-Day War in 1967, can be seen. As can the Sea of Galilee.
However, it is a different watery attraction that is one of the highlights of any trip...
