Where to go? Destinations Jordan

Discovering Jordan, a parenthesis between the Mediterranean and the Orient ...

Jordan is a colorful country where many civilizations have followed. The Roman city of Jerash and the Nabatean city of Petra are ample proof of this and one can not ignore the castles and citadels of the Umayyad desert. But the beauty of Jordan is also found in its natural sites such as the Dead Sea or the desert where yellow, orange and gold mingle. One can only be amazed by the rocky convolutions of the surprising Wadi Rum and the unpredictable prospects of the valleys of the Dana Reserve. From the port of Aqaba to the oasis of Azraq, you will appreciate not only the panorama that multiplies the mirages, but also the Bedouin traditions and the hospitality of a peaceful and welcoming people ...
