Amman was named one of the MENA’s best cities according to economic, labour, environmental, and socio-cultural factors. Amman is among the most popular locations for multinational corporations to set up their regional offices, alongside Doha and only behind Dubai.  It is a major tourist destination in the region and the capital is especially popular among Gulf tourists.
