We're going to have coffee
We're going to have coffee
The phrase "we're going to drink coffee" doesn't mean you really want coffee. Rather, in Jordan, what the man said to the woman's parents when proposing. After coming to the woman's house, the man first has to say to the woman's father, "We want coffee", and if the woman's father replies, "You drink", the marriage will be done. If there is no answer, or if the other party rejects it, it is that the marriage proposal is unsuccessful and the woman's parents do not agree. It is said that in some parts of Jordan, after marriage, the parties cannot speak until the birth of the child, and they can not communicate verbally. Wondering, then what do they rely on to communicate?
Jordan Tourism
Dead Sea
Tourism is an important pillar industry in Jordan. There is the world's famous Dead Sea. The Dead Sea is not a sea, it is a lake. It is the lowest in the world with an altitude of -442 meters. It is also the deepest saltwater lake in the world. The water of the Dead Sea contains a large number of minerals, which have a good therapeutic effect on the human body. Therefore, the Dead Sea is also a world-famous health resort. Swim in the Dead Sea without worrying about whether you will swim or not, because you simply can't sink.
The Wadi Rum Desert is known as the most moon-like place in the world, hence the name Valley of the Moon. Known as the most beautiful desert in the world, it was listed as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations in 2011.
