As watching the sun slowly on the Rum Wadi, the unique Quark attracts a very new surprise. Red rocks shine for a golden moment, wash in the last beams of the day, and the wind slowly rotates the burnt orange sand in our feet. As the color comes out of the day and the temperature decreases, a set of stars appear in a wide dark sky.
Later on the same night, we have these constellations through the transparent ceiling on our tents on the luxotel bubble, where even inside the homes feel immersed in the wilderness of the desert, before spending a few hours with astronomers in the sky, in the sky We were immersed completely. Experts point to the northern star, Orion and Cassiopeia, as well as the launch of telescopes to view other constellations, moon and planets.
Wadi Rum-UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011-is only one of the sites on the “Comments” list for a tourist for Jordan. One of the great attractions of the Middle East for its passengers is its size – Jordan is a relatively small country that is easy to travel, meaning that you can only see several destinations on one trip. And there are many cultural stones, ancient historical sites and natural wonders at its borders.
One of the new wonders of the world is the ancient city of Petra at the top of the list of more tourists – and for great reasons. Rose City is not only a UNESCO World Heritage Site but also one of the seven modern wonders of the world. Walking along the 1.2 kilometers of El Sikon is seen through prominent rock walls and the treasurer is known, a truly magical experience. While the early morning sun raised shadows on rocky tombs, we were watching this view of the same color before exploring many caves, tombs and temples that filled the former capital of the Nonita kingdom. We watched the rosy to a deep golden.
There are a lot of work in Petra that you need for at least a few days. Aside from the Treasury admiration, climbing 850 steps to the monastery, or perhaps walking on one of the many Petra walking routes, is a good idea to spend some time learning the history of this wonderful architecture. The Petra Museum, which recently opened, returns you through ancient times to tell the story of the city with antiquities and information about Nabataean civilization and beyond.
Just over three hours of driving from Petra, the capital of Aman is the home of some of the most important historical sites in the country. Even if you only save a day or two, travel to the citadel where not only enjoy the panoramic view of the “White City” (so -called white limestone from which buildings are traditionally made of But you can wander around the magnificent Hercules temple, the primary Islamic palace and a Byzantine church, as well as caves that go back to the Bronze Age.
Then go to the beautiful theater of 6,000 Roman seats in the city center, thought to be built in the 2nd century and is still used for performances today-thanks to the acoustic that has been influenced by the audience for hundreds of years.
Only 33 kilometers from the capital, the smaller city of Madbibbas is attractive and a rich culture. This is mostly known for its sophisticated mosaics from the Byzantine and Umayyad periods, including the oldest image of the Holy Land. This very good mosaic map is preserved, dating back to the sixth century, found in the Byzantine Church of St. George on the floor, showing places such as Jerusalem, Jerushanu, the Dead Sea and the Jordan River. Visitors can follow a specific tourist route that takes them to church and travel through Hossein bin Ali Street through Hossein bin Ali Street.
It is also in the Nebo Mountain, which is believed that Moses looked at the Holy Land before his death. Looking at the scenery that was placed in the same landscape thousands of years ago will change very little – with the dead sea, Bethlehem, Jericho, and on a bright day, even Jerusalem was drawn before you.
My tour in Jordan ended in a natural surprise that the sea is dead. More than 400 meters below sea level, this is the lowest point on Earth, with mineral rich water and salt concentration of about 34 percent -10 more incredible water than in the world’s oceans. This means that you are effortlessly floating, while your body is soaked in water high in magnesium chloride, sodium, potassium and bromine salts to only be named. For the full experience of the dead sea, pour your body into a soft, dark flower from the sea bed and let it dry in the Jordanian sun before washing in the sea. This is a great end for a journey that discover the jewelry of this beautiful country.
