Hello everyone :) I've seen there is discussion about travelling during Ramadan in Jordan. For I know, it last 3~5 days as national holidays in Jordan. | ||

As above. Most Jordanians make the rounds visiting relatives, or head to the Dead Sea or Aqaba for the time off; hotels in these two places are usually fully booked. After the first 1-2 days, shops start opening back up and things begin moving again. The Greater Eid--Eid Al Adha--the feast of the sacrifice--comes 40 days later. | 2 | |
