There are places that seem made smoke. As if they could vanish for Wind bunting. Jordan is part of the legend, that of having a sandy soul perceive only desert nomads. The country is a land of biblical legends, lost cities and long hours involved in the myth of Lawrence of Arabia. A magical and unexplored romance and mystery emanating. If it were located in another region of the world, there is no doubt that Jordan would be flooded with tourists. But precisely the source of its fantastic wealth of places of interest owes much to their isolation. Is there, in that distance, where everything makes sense in this enclave hidden by fog desert.

Travelling in Jordan and Jerusalem means travel not only one of the most beautiful destinations on the planet but time travel. You can always admire the incredible deserts of Wadi Rum, the only Petra with its air of aristocracy and clay, get lost in the streets of Jerusalem, beginning and end of all. All these experiences you will find them on a journey created more to understand that to see. A trip to the philosophy of Viajesalpasado and we feel close (so I recommend). A different route where the guide does not teach the places, explains. The importance of the fund in order to admire the way. An archaeologist serving as interpreter of all that is seen and encountered in this fantastic route.
A route that information to deepen our roots in the Petra area, when humans about 10.000 years decided stop being nomads to become sedentary and thus start the process that would lead to civilization. Or later, when the Jews went out of the desert to escape the wrath of Pharaoh and were treated to their Promised Land from Mount Nebo, where Moses was buried.
By this route passed most incredible and valuable products that the world of that time could have
Understand how Petra and Palmyra Bosra first and then, were the key cities in one of the biggest trade routes: the Silk Road. By this route passed most incredible and valuable products that the world of that time could have: gold, incense, myrrh, silk, lapis … and cities like Petra, Amman and Jerash but prospered and enjoyed this trade to become true metropolis full of luxury and glamor Roman and Eastern.
By the end of the holy city for all, start and end a sentence that drags: Jerusalem. Jews, Muslims and Christians have made this city sacred place for billions of people looking through the remains of its ancient monuments the origins of their faith. Here, mosques, churches or synagogues, Torah references, the Koran or the New Testament, are located at each corner and one never ceases to breathe holiness while walking through the streets. The cultural and religious mix is ??total and absolute, but on this trip we will try to get closer to the first, leaving the second in charge of each.
The mystery and beauty of the hand of those who can decipher, at least, of who understands better than the rest the complicated language code desert cities: an archaeologist.
