About Amman
Amman is the capital of Jordan and the country's commercial, political and cultural centre. Built across a series of hills, it combines a Roman theatre and the ancient Citadel with modern business districts, and it is the usual starting point for visitors heading to Petra, Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea. Many regional and humanitarian organisations are based here.
Amman uses UTC+3 all year round. Jordan stopped changing its clocks seasonally and now stays on what used to be its summer time permanently, so it is an hour ahead of neighbouring Israel and Egypt in winter. The working week normally runs Sunday to Thursday, with Friday and Saturday as the weekend, which is worth bearing in mind when arranging meetings.
