    • The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is a constitutional monarchy . The monarch is the head of state. Behind this official statement, a lack of respect regarding the King or the royal family is considered as a rude insult and disrespectful.

    The attachment of the Jordanians to the King is real and does not limit itself to the omnipresent official portraits. Photos from King Abdullah II or from his father King Hussein are everywhere in private arrays (shops, houses,...).
    It's a common sense but, whatether is your political sensibility, Jordan is a kingdom and the respect to the king is the default rule to be applied here

    • The water is a vital and critical resource, so, saving it is a hughe constraint, with consequences for the not warned tourist daily life:

    - No cork in bathtubs
    - the toilet paper is not supposed to be put itself into toilet but into a dedicated basket, in order to minimize the usage of the water.
    - A small shower head is often an alternative to the flush system

    • Jordan law regarding smoking in the public areas does not exist or is not applied. Peoples are smoking, a lot, and everywhere. If you are allergic or sensitive to the smoke, this could be a nightmare or a bad experience

    • The collection and the waste treatment seems to be unknown in Jordan. It's not a judgement, is a fact: full of empty bottles, old tyres and plastic bags and other human wastes. This affects most of the country, cities, beaches and desert included.

    My suggestion: for this topic only, don't act as the locals
