Interesting customs and traditions in Jordan

The two main things that you should remember about proper behavior in Jordan:
•Show respect for Islam
•Show respect for the monarchy.

People will understand if you don't know all the finer points of custom and manners, though you will do yourself a favor by attempting to learn. However, a basic level of respect for how other people conduct their lives is essential. Cultural pride is a huge part of what it means to be Arabian and Jordanian.

If you visit during the holy month of Ramadan, or when visiting places of religious significance, always display the utmost level of respect for their practices – regardless of your feelings about politics or philosophy. You are in someone else's home, this is what you are supposed to do, no matter where you are. Dress modestly, behave courteously, and follow everyone's lead.
