Paris Charles de Gaulle is not a friendly airport to catch your connecting flight. The place has got 3 big C's- chaotic, crowded and confusing. From Paris its a 4.5 hrs flight to Jordan.
In Amman, entry visa can be obtained for 10 Jordan Dinar (equivalent to 10 Euro) upon arrival. Then its short drive to the city. Amman is an expanding city of 2 mln people, located close to some of the current world's 'hot spots' - bordering Iraq, Israel and Syria.
Weather here is suprisingly cold (6 degC) and rainy. There are no skyscrappers or significant landmark to orientate where you are. Amman is built on top of 7 jabals (mountains) with valleys in between -so it can be very confusing. Here's a snap of Amman from the 10th floor.
