In addition to its historical treasures, Jordan’s natural landscapes are stunning and varied, from the desert dunes of Wadi Rum, which has been dubbed the “Valley of the Moon,” to the serene, salt-rich waters of the Dead Sea, where you can float effortlessly on the surface. The Jordanian landscape also features the lush hills and valleys of the Dana Biosphere Reserve and the high-altitude landscapes of Ajloun. Whether you’re seeking adventure through desert trekking, a rejuvenating dip in the Dead Sea, or simply immersing yourself in a welcoming, hospitable culture, Jordan offers a blend of unforgettable experiences for every traveler. With its relatively compact size, the country is easy to explore and provides a unique combination of ancient history, modern amenities, and striking natural beauty.

Within a decade of its opening the Four Seasons has managed to become, by many lights, the top luxury hotel in Jordan’s capital city of Amman. In terms of design, it doesn’t get much more conservative than this — it’s about as avant-garde as you’d expect from a Middle Eastern outpost of a Canadian luxury chain. But there’s something to be said for following the rules, when high-end hospitality is your business; a stay in a hotel like this, often enough, is measured by how few surprises one encounters, not how many.
