Civilization began in Jordan, and its capital city of Amman is a shining example of how thousands of years of evolution can coexist in a single city. Ruins of the past coexist in perfect harmony with world class hotels, and there is no clash of cultures between the western civilization and the Arabic world. One of the favorite tourists destinations in the Middle East, Amman provides top quality accommodation for travelers, busy shopping centers and intense nightlife you didn't dream to discover in an Arab city.

Monuments of the past date back to Roman times, such as the Citadel of Jabal al-Qal'a or the Roman Theater. There are of course plenty of mosques worth visiting, the most popular destination being the colossal King Abdullah I Mosque.
