Dead Sea<br />
At 431m below sea level – the Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth – the azure blue<br />
waters are quite the spectacle. The Dead Sea truly is filled with salt and you can float<br />
until your heart’s content. The Dead Sea is also an easy day trip from Amman or Madaba.<br />
Dead Sea salts and minerals have long been exploited for their skin-friendly properties.<br />
Jerash<br />
History buffs head this way.<br />
Jerash is the most wellpreserved<br />
ancient Roman<br />
city outside of Italy. Jerash<br />
dates back 6500 years<br />
and was an important city<br />
on Rome’s ancient trade<br />
route. Thanks to the dry<br />
climate, it laid untouched<br />
for centuries to understand<br />
waiting to be explored.<br />
Excavations began in<br />
1925 and today it is one<br />
of the greatest examples<br />
of Roman architecture<br />
outside of Rome.<br />
Amman<br />
Amman is a relatively<br />
new city, mostly built in<br />
the 20th century it is a<br />
thriving metropolis that is<br />
at odds with the historic<br />
country. Here you can<br />
enjoy a shisha at a local<br />
bar, shop at one of the<br />
many markets and be sure<br />
to visit The King Abdullah<br />
Mosque.<br />
