Most filmmakers are drawn to Jordan because of its stunning and varied scenery, which is for the most part easily accessed by road. The climate is dry in summer with average temperatures of 30 °C (86 °F). The weather can become relatively cool in winter, with temperatures averaging around 13 °C (55 °F). Areas around the capital of Amman have been known to see snowfall around November.
The capital city of Amman is home to several impressive historical structures such as the Amman Citidel, the Roman Theatre and the historic area of Jabal Amman. There are also modern areas of the city and a new high-rise business district is currently under construction.
The ancient city of Petra is also a major draw for filmmakers, including monasteries, tombs and temples hailing from the Byzantine era.
Other draws include unique natural landmarks such as the Dead Sea, the Jordan Rift Valley, the Wadi Rum (the Valley of the Moon), the desert castle of The Quseir Amra and the Neolithic structures of Jerash.
After the Iraq war began in 2003 and since the Syrian war there has been a surge in films made around the subject. Since large areas of Syria are still too dangerous for foreigners to enter, Jordan has become a viable alternative. Not only does Jordan’s natural landscape easily substitute for areas of Iraq, Afghanistan , Syria and Palestine but the country also has a huge number of Iraqi , Syrian and Palestinian refugees currently residing there in refugee camps. We have very good relation with these refugees and the organizations.
