As-Salt is located on top of three hills north-west of Amman and it is one of the most beautiful and historic cities in Jordan, the city is famous for its magnificent Ottoman-era architecture, very narrow streets, and deep cultural roots. The city was once a very important trading center between the Eastern Desert and the Jordan Valley, but now it has preserved its unique mixture of tradition and history that has won for it the designation of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The city's yellow sandstone buildings are unique and they are the ones that mainly contribute to the city's timelessness. Visitors can walk through the Harmony Trail, a walking route that shows the city's religious coexistence, traditional crafts, and local life. The Salt Archaeological Museum and Abu Jaber House are the main facilities exhibiting the town's heritage; on the other hand, the old souks are the best places to experience shopping that is always authentic with their handmade goods and local delicacies.

A unique thing about As-Salt is the hospitality of the people — the locals are very friendly and generous, thus providing the travelers with a very warm Jordanian experience. As-Salt being a city with historic charm, deep-rooted culture, and beautiful views of the hilly lands, it is a place where visitors can feel the living history of Jordan.
