<h4>A pictureqsue view where you can&#39;t see the trash on the beach</h4>

</figure>
<p>I&rsquo;m struggling to find words to describe my trip to Jordan&rsquo;s coastal city Aqaba. Initially, the contrast between dry desert, rocky mountains, and the turquoise water of the Red Sea is quite strikingimagine Matt Damon in <em>The Martian</em>, but where he goes snorkeling on a coral reef instead of growing potatoes.</p>
<p></p>
<p>If that sounds too good to be true, it is! Sadly, I found Aqaba to be dirtyused diapers on the beach, locals arrogantly throwing trash on the street, trash floating around the reef, etcand full of obnoxious, poorly behaved tourists.</p>

<p>There&rsquo;s an amazing wetland nature preserve an hour and a half from Ammanin thirty minutes of walking around, I saw birds, snakes, crabs, fish, and even water buffaloes! For thousands of years it was a massive, thriving oasis whose ecological diversity supported human settlements, but in the past few decades it has come dangerously close to drying up due to increased water usage from surrounding cities.</p>

&lt;h4&gt;A pictureqsue view where you can&amp;#39;t see the trash on the beach&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;/figcaption&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;m struggling to find words to describe my trip to Jordan&amp;rsquo;s coastal city Aqaba. Initially, the contrast between dry desert, rocky mountains, and the turquoise water of the Red Sea is quite strikingimagine Matt Damon in &lt;em&gt;The Martian&lt;/em&gt;, but where he goes snorkeling on a coral reef instead of growing potatoes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If that sounds too good to be true, it is! Sadly, I found Aqaba to be dirtyused diapers on the beach, locals arrogantly throwing trash on the street, trash floating around the reef, etcand full of obnoxious, poorly behaved tourists.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<p>I&rsquo;m struggling to find words to describe my trip to Jordan&rsquo;s coastal city Aqaba. Initially, the contrast between dry desert, rocky mountains, and the turquoise water of the Red Sea is quite strikingimagine Matt Damon in <em>The Martian</em>, but where he goes snorkeling on a coral reef instead of growing potatoes.</p>

&lt;p&gt;I&amp;rsquo;m struggling to find words to describe my trip to Jordan&amp;rsquo;s coastal city Aqaba. Initially, the contrast between dry desert, rocky mountains, and the turquoise water of the Red Sea is quite strikingimagine Matt Damon in &lt;em&gt;The Martian&lt;/em&gt;, but where he goes snorkeling on a coral reef instead of growing potatoes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If that sounds too good to be true, it is! Sadly, I found Aqaba to be dirtyused diapers on the beach, locals arrogantly throwing trash on the street, trash floating around the reef, etcand full of obnoxious, poorly behaved tourists.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
