    • The King's highway connects Amman and Aquaba and it is famous for it's panoramic views. Other than that mentioned great overlooks there are several important sights along the way.

    The route was mentioned for the first time in the bible, when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt.

    The best views you'll have at Wadi Mujib, which is best described as Jordan's grand canyon.

    It is possible to go from Amman to Aquaba within one single day, but if you want to visit all sights on the way I recommend you to sally early in the morning. If you also want to visit Petra you'll need at least two days.

    My conclusion was, that King's highway is not the fastest way to reach Petra and Aquaba, but is obviously the most stylish way to get there.
