Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, is a valley carved over millennia by the flow of a river in the sandy and granite-like soil of southern Jordan, about 60 km east of Aqaba. It is the largest wadi of Jordan.
As described by Thomas Edward Lawrence (of Arabia), the Wadi Rum is “vast, echoing and so similar to a Divinity” is considered by many to be one of the most breathtaking views in the world, Wadi Rum is a paradise for nature lovers.
One of the main attractions of Jordan, this area is formed by sandy mountains with very different colors, ranging from yellow to white, red and brown, interspersed with deep canyons with geological formations. The panorama is also distinguished by its delicate arches and natural bridges, as well as by molded stones like mushrooms, carved and shaped naturally by years of wind and erosion.
