Jordan family vacations

During your <a href="/jordan/">journey to Jordan</a>, you are bound to spend a night in Amman, the capital city which is near the international airport. It's often the departure point for trips to Jerash or the south of the country.

The departure point for a journey to Jordan: Amman.

For my <a href="/jordan/">trip to Jordan</a>, I had chosen to make a loop of the country, arriving in Amman and departing from there too. Even though it's not necessarily exciting, nor even inherently beautiful, I discovered a capital that operates on a human scale, and a city that is quite pleasant to wander around.

Along with its Syrian neighbor, Damascus, Amman is one of the oldest cities in the world. As well as being the capital of Jordan, it is the port of entry or departure for the majority of tourists in the country.
