Jordan

The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, which captivated ancient travelers, continues to enthrall a new generation as a modern, vibrant nation. The ancient Nabatean city of Petra, carved from the rock over a thousand years ago, have long been most people's first impression of Jordan. A well traveled bridge between sea and dessert, east and west,  Jordan is a land of mesmerizing beauty and contrasts, from the Jordan Valley, fertile, ever changing, to the remote desert canyons, immense and still. Visitors can explore splendid desert castles, gaze in awe at the haunting wilderness of Wadi Rum, or bathe in the restful waters of the Red Sea.
