Regions of Jordan
Each region offers a distinct character and accommodation scene. Find the one that matches your travel plans.
The capital owns the biggest menu. International chains rise in Abdali. Villas reborn as boutique hotels hide in Jabal Amman.

Resort strip hugs the northeastern shore. Each claims a slice of mineral-rich water. Mud pots wait.
Aqaba strings hotels along 20 km of Red Sea sand. Dive boats bob. Marinas glitter.
Jerash and Ajloun hills stay green. Roman columns stand beside forest reserves. Small inns welcome.
