Jordan
JO
The land of endless deserts, endless debates about who's the best Arab basketball player, and endless plates of shawarma.
Jordan: Where the ancient city of Petra is, but mostly people just care about Amman's nightlife.
Jordan: A country where the only thing more plentiful than the sand dunes is the number of times you'll be asked "Where are you from?"
Jordan is home to the Dead Sea, which is the lowest point on Earth's surface and so salty you can easily float in it.
The ancient city of Petra, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, was carved into rose-colored sandstone cliffs.
