Wadi Rum Protected Area (Jordan) (12/20)

Wadi Rum, also known as the Valley of the Moon, is a vast desert landscape in southern Jordan, characterized by towering sandstone mountains, narrow canyons, and ancient petroglyphs. While Petra is undoubtedly Jordan’s most famous attraction, Wadi Rum offers a stunning desert experience with fewer tourists. It’s a popular base for Bedouin-led desert treks, stargazing, and even rock climbing.
