Majority of its population is Sunni Muslim and culture is very much dominated by Muslim hospitality and mutual respect. Jordanians are fiercely proud of their race particularly the Bedouins. They also show great interest in outsiders, with a genuine enthusiasm in where visitors come from and what they think of Jordan.
While some parts of Jordan is Westernized, much of its traditional culture is imbue to the morals and conduct of people. Men can be seen hanging together on cafes while women stay at the souks or at home.
Food and particularly drink plays an important role in Jordanian culture and refusing an offer of either may be considered slightly insulting to your host.
