Jordan, known for its various attractions and rich history, has always been a popular destination for tourists. The city of Aqaba in Jordan was included in the Times Magazine list of "The Great Places to Visit in the World" for the year 2023.
Recently, visitors to the Jordanian city of Petra, dubbed the "Red Rose City", enjoyed a multimedia show that combines dynamic light, music, and expressive narratives during the Petra Light Festival, which included an audio experience in the Siq of Petra and three-dimensional scans of the Treasury of Petra by local and international artists.

Jordan has long recognized the potential of its tourism industry as a major driver of economic growth, job creation, and cultural exchange. Thus, as part of its foreign policy, the country has actively promoted tourism as a means of reflecting international partnerships and promoting a positive image of Jordan abroad. The government has implemented a range of policies and initiatives to support the sector, including investment in infrastructure and the development of tourism products and experiences that showcase the country's unique history, culture, and natural beauty. As a result, tourism has become a major contributor to Jordan's overall economic growth and has helped support the standard of living for many segments of the country's local community.
