Religious harmony

Jordan is an excellent choice for people seeking cultural understanding as well as spiritual enlightenment. Jordan recognizes its ethnically and religiously varied population and, as a result, protects its residents' cultural rights. This atmosphere of tolerance and respect is one of the most important factors contributing to Jordan's stability and peace. More over 92% of Jordanians are Muslims, whereas just about 8% are Christians.

When visiting Jordan, you should visit various holy places. As a result, the King Abdullah Mosque is a "Must Visit" for anybody interested in Jordan's royal family or modern Islamic architecture. This is Amman's sole mosque that openly invites non-Muslim guests. The large blue dome, 35 in diameter, crowned the octagonal prayer chamber, which was covered with Quranic inscriptions.

For pilgrims visiting Jordan, the Roman Catholic Church holds great significance. In December 1967, the Vatican acknowledged the church as belonging to the Patriarchate of Jerusalem and required travelers to visit this precious place.
