&lt;h4&gt;Bedouin with camels in Wadi Rum&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;/figcaption&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You could easily lose yourself — both literally and figuratively — in the endless red sand and towering rock skyscrapers of Wadi Rum. This majestic place, known to even the Greeks and the Romans, has been inhabited for thousands of years and is unlike any other place on Earth. The unique landscape has been featured in a handful of Hollywood movies, for example &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_of_Arabia_(film)&#34;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Lawrence of Arabia&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Martian_(film)&#34;&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Martian&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take a local &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin&#34;&gt;Bedouin&lt;/a&gt; guide, sleep in a tent, and experience the beautiful tranquility of Jordan&amp;rsquo;s desert expanses.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

<title>Sleep in a Chalet at the Dead Sea</title>

&lt;p&gt;Even if the number number of mosques in Amman &lt;em&gt;didn&amp;rsquo;t&lt;/em&gt; outnumber churches by a factor of ten, the Saint Thaddeus Armenian Apostolic church would still stand out. It caught my eye once a few weeks ago and then I started seeing it every time I glanced at Jabal Al-Ashrafieh. After weeks of squinting and asking myself &amp;ldquo;&lt;em&gt;Is that an Armenian church?&lt;/em&gt;&amp;rdquo; I finally went on an epic scavenger hunt and found it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;A few weeks ago I slept in a tent on the cusp of Jordan&amp;rsquo;s Rift Valley. &lt;a href=&#34;http://wildjordan.com/&#34;&gt;Wild Jordan&lt;/a&gt; has regular hiking and camping trips to the reserve and they are very affordable. The staff are friendly and genuinely care about nature conservation. Trips to this and other national parks are part of an impressive &lt;a href=&#34;http://www.rscn.org.jo/&#34;&gt;government effort&lt;/a&gt; to preserve Jordan&amp;rsquo;s natural spaces.&lt;/p&gt;
