By Joyce Rogers


The Middle East is a very beautiful place. It is an area of great significance because it is right at the center of the world. This region has always played a central role in world politics since time immemorial. It is a place of top geopolitical significance. Babylon Empire once ruled the world and it is part of present day Iraq. Modern day Iran was once the Persian Empire. Jerusalem has always been a centre of religion and commerce. One needs to travel to Jordan to see that amazing side of the Middle East rarely featured in the news.

Jordan tourist attractions are many and diverse. One will never fully explore them in a short visit. There will be need for a long visit of at least more than one month so that one can fully see the many things that this nation has to offer. When the trip is over, a person will look forward to making a repeat visit.

At the top of the list are the Petra ruins. These have been mentioned in many historical books and they are the subject of a number of archaeological studies.

Jesus Christ was baptized there.

Jordan is one of the most peaceful countries in the Middle East. Unlike its neighbors, it has never experienced major conflicts. That is because of democratic nature of the Jordanian government. There has been the peaceful transfer of power many times. In addition, the peaceful nature of Jordanians means that there are usually no terrorist attacks as is normally the case elsewhere.

Above all, Jordanians are people who are easy to interact with. They always love visitors and they usually look forward to guiding visitors on their visits of the country. One will surely like the welcoming nature and hospitality of the Jordanians. This country has many modern developments such as shopping centers. There are always pristine beaches where one can relax.

It is worthy to visit this nation. One will get full value for the amount that he will spend on the trip. Every day, there are many flights that go from different cities to Amman. Once in this city, one can organize to visit the various interesting places in the country. It is necessary to make early arrangements to avoid last minute disappointments.
