Looking
for adventure on this vacation? Jordan has heaps of age-old history.
When thing to travel in Jordan, just imagine rolling desert landscapes,
awe-inspiring Red Sea reefs, monumental city of Petra
and much more. In fact, the treasures of Jordan are plenty in number –
starting from ancient Biblical sites to sprawling desert landscapes and
salt waters of the Dead Sea.
If you are still confused, read the post below and find out the good reasons to travel to Jordan now:
1. Experience the Splash in the Dead Sea –
The Dead Sea
is the lowermost place on the earth’s surface and is located around 400
meters (1,310 feet) below the sea level. Though many wadis empty their
salty flood waters into the Dead Sea,
there’s no specific outlet for the sea. Combining with soaring
temperature of the air, it produces a high rate of evaporation from
almost 10 million tons of water per day. However, the evaporation leaves
the residues of salt and minerals like sodium chloride, magnesium
chloride, potash and bromide salts.
Remember
one thing that the Dead Sea is almost 10 times saltier than any ocean
with salinity rate of over 30%. So come here and enjoy some therapeutic
mud baths during your Jordan travel.
2. Discover the Magnificent of Petra –
The UNESCO World Heritage Site – Petra is located in disguise in South Jordan. This Rose City
was carved out of the rock by the Nabateans over 2,000 years ago and
offers a staggering number of over 800 monuments scattering 100 sq km –
exploring all will take weeks to achieve. When making a trip to Petra
during your Jordan travel, visit The Siq, the Treasury, The Royal Tombs,
The High Place of Sacrifice and Obelisk.
3. Take in the Red Sea Coral Reefs –
One
of the richest marine kingdoms all over the world, the Red Sea is
well-accessible through Aqaba. On your trip to the Red Sea, you will see
some of the beautiful coral reefs around. Though the average
temperature of the water is 23° C, the calm waters welcome both divers
and snorkelers wholeheartedly. When you go underneath, you’ll explore a
thriving world of sponges, corals, a huge variety of fish like
damselfish, moray eels, parrot fish, turtles, whale shark, seahorses
etc.
4. Go Deep into the Wadi Rum –
The
awe-inspiring Wadi Rum is a vast desert space that will take away your
breath for sure. Over 6,500 Bedouin are thought to live in Wadi Rum.
Though many sites of Wadi Rum are well-trodden along the tourist trail,
there’s nothing that can distract the sheer size, scale and majesty of
Wadi Rum in any sense. If you are thinking of travelling to Jordan,
don’t forget to experience the desert flora and fauna as well as the
incredible delight of solitude and space at Wadi Rum!
5. Uncover the Mystery of Jerash –
Almost as popular as the idyllic city of Petra, Jerash
is another great reason to visit Jordan. The ancient city offers an
introduction to some of the best-preserved Roman ruins around the world.
However, it just takes an hour’s drive from the capital city – Amman.
While traveling Jerash, don’t forget to visit the Hippodrome, the South
Theatre and the Temple of Zeus. When you walk through Jerash, you’ll
come across colonnaded and paved streets, soaring hilltop temples,
theaters, wide public squares, fountains etc.
