    "The history of Jerash is a long and detailed one that is best discovered whilst exploring the ruins and museums of the city itself. The city was conquered by General Pompey in 64 BC when it was named Gerasa. Gerasa grew in wealth and later became a colony in the third century. Due to an earthquake and a number of crusades leading up to the 12th Century, the city’s ancient sites were not discovered again until the end of the 19th century."

    "As one of the seven new wonders of the world, Petra not only has temples, monasteries, snake roads, chanting, candlelight, the most expensive ticket (670 yuan), but also the most expensive donkey."
    Petra
    >100km from Amman
    Highlights: The Snake Pass, the gateway to Petra, is actually a 1-kilometer-long rock crevice nearly 100 meters high. Walking in it, one can't help but marvel at the ingenious work of nature, and at the same time envy the good luck of the Petra people to find such a natural shelter.
