 * Places to visit:** <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif">My 5 top places I would like to visit in Jordan would be the capital of Jordan; Amman. In Amman there are many different attractions such as city life, business, sky scrapers, and beautiful architect. Another would be the city of Irbid. Irbid is very well known for the amazing sunrises and sunsets. which would be wonderful to see. Theres a place called Petra, in which stands ancient rock such as sandstone, in which it was carved to form amazing artwork that now attracts people today. It was discovered in 1812 after being lost for more than 300 years. Another place I would enjoy doing in Jordan would be Paragliding, in which you go up into the mountains of Jordan and you Paraglide off the mountains and you can soar around the open land beneath you.
