Jerash and Petra are the sites of the best ruins in Jordan. Jerash also hosts a music festival every year in one of the the old Roman theaters. We were not there during one of the main performances, because tickets are expensive; however, we did see an Arab man in traditional dress play Ode to Joy on the bagpipes.
Petra is the most famous site in Jordan and is being called one of the new wonders on the ancient world. We walked through the whole site during the day, and went through again during a night tour. Unfortunately, the pictures from the night tour did not come out, but I still have pictures from the day

Is that where Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was filmed?
Yes it was. Additionally, Wadi Rum, where Brett was last weekend and hope to be next weekend, is where Lawrence of Arabia was filmed.
