The study suggests investing in cultural and historical sites in the Northern Badia can help achieve sustainable economic development in the target area. A questionnaire was developed to collect demographic and economic information about tourists during their visit to Jordan in addition to other independent variables. 300 tourists were included in the survey in nine different sites in Jordan during the summer of 2010. The willingness to travel (WTT) method was applied in this study, and a Logistic model was employed to estimate the results using SPSS statistical package.

Additional effort needs to be undertaken to market these sites nationally and internationally, to maximize the return of the sites on the local and national level.
