Best Luxury Hotels In Jordan 

Containing over 100,000 archaeological sites including the awe-inspiring Rose City of Petra (one of the oldest cities on earth and a modern Wonder of the World), the capital Amman (which itself dates back to the Stone Age) and the UNESCO-listed Wadi Rum (aka the Valley of the Moon), this land is utterly fascinating. It also contains the lowest point on the planet, where the Dead Sea sits 420 metres beneath sea level; here you have the chance for some totally natural flotation therapy, while the minerals soothe your muscles, improve your skin and create a tangible feeling of wellbeing.
