Sunset at the Dead Sea. It is easy to visit the Dead Sea from Amman on your own if you want more time at the lowest point on earth. The hotels and resorts by the Dead Sea are only an hour drive away from the apartments.

A glimpse of Wadi Rum and its vastness.
The Monastery in Petra. The Monastery is similar in style to the Treasury, however the Monastery is far bigger. We rode donkeys on our way up the mountain to see the Monastery and the ride was exciting but quite dangerous as the donkeys travel fast on the slippery steps.
The Roman Theater in Downtown Amman. Climbing to the top gives you a great view of the Hashmite Plaza and the jabals of Amman.
Some houses by the streets of Jabal Al Weibdeh.
A painted mural on the side of a building. There are many amazing murals around Amman and the best way to see some of them is by walking around Downtown or Jabal Al-Weibdeh.
Another painted mural near the Umbrella Stairs in Downtown Amman.
