12 Phenomenal Places to Go in Amman, Amman, Jordan
Please, don’t skip Amman when you visit Jordan! There are so many places to go in Amman that you won’t regret visiting this beautiful bustling capital. It maybe a little hectic compared to Petra and Wadi Rum but Amman is full of history, culture, shopping and foodie delights.
