During my first trip to Israel I had the pleasure of taking a day trip to Petra from where we were staying in the south of Israel (Eilat) and I can say that while it didn't have any sort of spiritual connection for me as Israel did...the experience was nothing short of increadible.
The feelings of being in a truly ancient and beautiful place such as that are overwhelming. It should be a wonder of the world. It was also fascinating to have a brief encounter with an Arab society, and experience a bit of hot mint tea in the 99 degree sun which was increadibly refreshing.
If your either going to be able to travel to there from Israel (which isn't easy right now) or are thinking about going on your own I recommend Petra highly. I can't say anything about the rest of Jordan, but I have a Jordanian friend who says its lovely.
