Jordan Medical Holiday / Vacation - Recuperating

After finishing with medical affairs, many medical vacationers find that they need a few days to recover. The most charming and relaxing destinations in Jordan are the resorts on the Gulf of Aqaba. Off the coast, the waters are rich with colorful coral reefs that draw large diving crowds.

Those who've only come for minor operations and don’t need to recuperate may want to see the former stomping grounds of Lawrence of Arabia. The deserts of Wadi Rum aren't far from Aqaba, and they're still populated by the Bedouin today. Travel agents will arrange for you to stay overnight in an actual Bedouin camp.

The bygone city of Petra is a must-see. This 3rd century passageway was literally carved from the mountains by Nabatean traders. It's also possible to visit the remote ruins of ancient Roman settlements which are scattered throughout the country.
