mount nebo
Mount Nebo is the mountain where Moses was
allowed to see the Holy Land... and died.
Nowadays the mountain is a memorial site. Here is
the "Church of Moses", built by the first
Christians. Ever since the first days of
Christianity this mountain has been a holy place
and a destination for pelgrimage.

Jerash
In Jerash the Romans (strange guys) had a great
time. The Roman excavations are of about the same
size as the modern part of the town. It is really
amazing to see so MANY columns. You can imagine
Jerash is sometimes called the Pompeii of the
East.
10
The Roman famous for the wall between England and
Scotland, Hadrian, has built an arch here, called
the Hadrian Arch. To see the Arch, you'll have to
go to Jordan yourself, because we didn't include
his picture .

Aqaba is the place to see if you like diving. The
coral reefs of the Red Sea are famous for their
beauty. These pictures of Red Sea Fish however
are taken in the Marine Aquarium, which is much
easier you don't have to buy an expensive
underwater camera and ... the fish don't swim
away just at the moment you want to take a
picture. An employee of the Aquarium told us he
thinks the coral reefs are even more beautiful
then Petra or Wadi Rum

Wadi Rum

According to the Jordanians, the desert at Wadi
Rum beautiful is the most in the world
