- Jordan has a subtropical arid climate with cold winters and hot, sunny summers. The country’s mostly plateau terrain, situated between 700 and 1,200 meters (2,300 and 3,900 feet) above sea level, helps moderate temperatures. The Jordan River valley, located below sea level, experiences higher temperatures, with mild winters and very hot summers. In the south, mountains, including Jabal Umm Dami reaching 1,854 meters (6,083 feet), provide further climatic variation.

Jordan’s Highlights
Top Places to Visit
Amman
The capital of Jordan and a city which geographically straddles seven hills and historically sits astride many centuries. The city’s modern buildings blend with the remnants of ancient civilizations.
Wadi Rum
Stunning in its natural beauty, Wadi Rum epitomizes the romance of the desert. With its “moonscape” of ancient valleys and towering sandstone mountains rising out of the sand, Wadi Rum is also home to several Bedouin tribes who live in scattered camps throughout the area.
Petra
Hidden behind an almost impenetrable barrier of rugged mountains, the rock-carved city of Petra is full of mysterious charm and the second wonder of the new world.
Jerash
The most spectacular Roman ruins out of Rome. The city’s many splendid monumental remains, still retain the atmosphere of the once thriving metropolis, famous in its own time for magnificent temples, amphitheaters, and plazas.
Dead Sea
The most spectacular site, Dead Sea which is at 400 meters below sea level is the lowest body of water on earth. Surrounded by arid hills, as devoid of life as the sea itself.
Aqaba
The small Red Sea port of Aqaba is unique and beautiful in a very special way. Encircled by rugged purple mountains that subtly change in mood and color as the day unfolds. On the beaches visitors soak up the sun before cooling off in the refreshingly cool waters.
