Cut into the side of a hill, the Roman Theater is one of Amman’s crowning jewels. The theater can seat up to 6,000 people and was built during the reign of Antonius Pius (A.D. 138 – 161), who was known for his love for philosophy, science and the arts.

Superb lighting, acoustics that allow you to hear clearly even from the farthest seats in the theater, a panoramic view from the top level — they all add up to create a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Today, the theater regularly hosts concerts and other events during the summer months. The experience and ambience of the place will completely spoil you for other venues.

Syrian ice cream in Jordan? Think of it as Syria’s gift to the city, and make sure you try it. Made from mastic and sahlep and pounded into creamy, stretchy perfection, the ice cream is then covered in crushed pistachios before its rolled, cut and served. A sweet treat from Bakdash is the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer Amman afternoon.

 

Habibah Sweets

 

While this patisserie serves many sweets, it all started with the shop’s Kunafa. Ask any Jordanian, and they’ll tell you that the Kunafa — a traditional cheese pastry soaked in sugar syrup — is a must-try dessert in Amman, and Habibah’s version is the one to try.

The suspended chandelier of 168 lanterns consists of three circles with the Holy Quranic Verse with the word Allah recurring on every lantern.

The fertile land is expressed in the form of a red carpet made of an ornamental textile of recurring patterns meant to direct worshippers toward the Kiblah. All the walls, including the Kiblah, the pulpit, and the Mihrab are panelled with wooden and marble oriels.

Best Sightseeing Day Tours In Amman

The Dead Sea

jordan Dead Sea Floating

40 minutes by bus

 

A spectacular natural wonder the Dead Sea that is located 427 meters below sea level is perfect for wellness and religious tourism, fun in the sun with the family. With its mix of beach living and religious history you can soak up the sun while Biblical scholars can get their daily dose of religious history. The leading attraction at the Dead Sea is the warm, soothing, super salty water itself – some ten times saltier than sea water, and rich in chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium, bromine and several others. The unusually warm, incredibly buoyant and mineral-rich waters have attracted visitors since ancient times, including King Herod the Great and the beautiful Egyptian Queen, Cleopatra. All of whom have luxuriated in the Dead Sea’s rich, black, stimulating mud and floated effortlessly on their backs while soaking up the water’s healthy minerals along with the gently diffused rays of the Jordanian sun.

The Baptism Site (Al-Maghtas)

40 minutes by Bus

 

the baptism site (al-maghtas)

Al-Maghtas, the Baptism Site of Jesus of Nazareth, signifies a landmark moment of the origin of Christianity. Religious and non-religious tourists alike will walk through a peaceful path of gorgeous Dead Sea vegetation to the location where Jesus was Baptised by John The Baptist. Located nine kilometers to the north of the Dead Sea visitors will have the pleasure of viewing sites built during the Roman and Byzantine empires. Al Maghtas is listed on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List.

Petra

petra

3 Hours by Bus

 

This wonder of the world is the most valuable treasure in Jordan, and also its main tourist attraction in the country.

A unique city sculpted on the rocks by the Nebauteus, the Arabic people who once lived in the Jordan deserts around Petra, a place that became a very important mark of the Silk route and other goods that were transported between Saudi Arabia, China, Greece, Egypt, Syria, and Rome.

Wadi Rum | Wadi Rum Protected Area

wadi rum Jordan

3.5 hours by bus from the MLC

 

Wadi Rum | Wadi Rum Protected Area

Wadi Rum is everything you’d expect of a quintessential desert: it is extreme in summer heat and winter cold; it is violent and moody as the sun slices through chiselled siqs (canyons) at dawn or melts the division between rock and sand at dusk; it is exacting on the Bedouin who live in it and vengeful on those who ignore its dangers. For most visitors, on half- or full-day trips from Aqaba or Petra, Wadi Rum offers one of the easiest and safest glimpses of the desert in the region. For the lucky few who can afford a day or two in their itinerary to sleep over at one of the desert camps, it can be an unforgettable way of stripping the soul back to basics.
