timeless serenity of Dana Village, and the grandeur of the red and white
sandstone cliffs of Wadi Dana.
People with Charm & History:
The Dana Village area, which overlooks the scenic Wadi Dana, has witnessed human
settlement since about 4000 BC. Evidence unveiled by archaeological exploration
shows that Paleolithic, Egyptian, Nabataean and Roman civilizations were drawn
to the area by the fertility of the soil, the water springs and the strategic
location.
The people who inhabit Dana Village today are the "Al Ata'ata" tribe. They
settled and built the village during Ottoman times about 400 years ago.
Dana has one of the most beautiful and unspoiled mountain
landscapes in Jordan and a spectacular village, perched on the edge of a deep
and precipitous gorge, reminiscent of the Grand Canyon. It is rich in wildlife,
and one of the best places to watch birds, especially during spring and autumn
migrations.
