Jordan\u2019s ambassador to Bras\u00edlia, Maen Masadeh: \u201cBrazilians can have a unique experience in Jordan. We want to welcome them into our home\u201d<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

According to Maen Masadeh, Jordan\u2019s ambassador to Bras\u00edlia, who is attending the event, Jordan wants to welcome more Brazilians for religious tourism. \u201cMany landmarks are related to [religious] pilgrimage, but that is not all that is to visit in Jordan. Brazilians can have a unique experience in Jordan. We want to welcome them into our home,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to data presented by the ambassador, 15,000 Brazilians traveled to Jordan in 2023. \u201cWe believe this number could be even higher, given that people may come back for new trips,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Silva, the region usually welcomed 200,000 visitors per year from Brazil, who bought packages including other destinations besides Jordan. Shortly after the pandemic, this number dropped to 20,000 and resumed their growth in 2023. By the outbreak of the conflict in the region last October, 50,000 Brazilians had traveled to the Holy Land. La Beduina provides a series of tourism services for leisure, business, and events. Silva said one of the best-selling packages comprehends United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Israel, and Egypt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
