Best time to visit Amman:
Spring (March to May):
- Spring is one of the best times to visit Jordan. The weather is comfortably warm, making it ideal for exploring.
- The landscapes are adorned with wildflowers, and iconic sites like Petra and Jerash are particularly pleasant to visit during this time.
Summer (June to August):
- Summer in Jordan can be extremely hot, especially in the desert areas like Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea region, with temperatures often soaring above 40°C (104°F).
- Coastal areas like Aqaba offer relief with sea breezes and water activities, but the interior regions might be challenging due to the heat.
Autumn (September to November):
- Autumn is another good time to visit Jordan as temperatures begin to cool down after the summer heat.
- It's an excellent time for exploring historical sites, enjoying outdoor adventures, and hiking in places like Dana Biosphere Reserve.
Winter (December to February):
- Winter in Jordan is generally mild during the day, but nights can be cold, especially in desert regions.
- It's a good time for exploring cities like Amman and Jerash and for experiencing the Dead Sea without the intense summer heat.
