Cosmopolitan Amman is the capital of Jordan and one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. You’ll find Amman is an interesting mix of old and new, and its highlights are split between its downtown area — the older, historical part — and its Western section, a maze of modern homes, multilane streets, fashion malls and luxury hotels. The city has much to offer culinary-wise, so plan on sampling some mouthwatering food, be it from a downtown stand specializing in fresh falafel or a high-end sushi restaurant. With an emerging cultural and architectural scene, Amman offers several pockets of hidden treasures that you should seek out during your journey.
