    • Smoking the waterpipe (narjile) is very popular in most Jordanian bars. You can smoke plain or apple-flavoured tobacco.
    The smoke is very light and cool; it's a very relaxing practice and some waterpipes are really nicely decorated handwork.
    Usually there is a guy who helps to light it and replaces periodically the burning charcoals. Typical price is 1.5 €.

    • Many jordanians spend a lot of time at the local bars, drinking tea, coffee and playing cards or domino. Of course this is a male only activity, though it's OK for female tourists to sit there for a drink without any hassle.
