In deference to the religion in Amman, dressing conservatively and covering up is recommended for females so as not to cause any offence. Cultural sites that should not be missed include many museums and art galleries such as the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, Jordan Museum of Popular tradition, Souk Jara and the Jordan Archaeological Museum.
