Crossing the border is another experience. You go through the motion of lining-up and passport check/stamp, luggage hand-over (but they did not open them) then immigration pass.
The Allenby Bridge, also known as the King Hussein Bridge, is a bridge that crosses the Jordan River, and connects Jericho in the West Bank to the country of Jordan. It is currently the designated exit/entry point for Palestinians residing in the West Bank traveling to and from the Kingdom of Jordan to the West Bank and Israel.
The original bridge was built in 1918. This bridge is still called the Allenby Bridge by Israelis, although it is also known as Al-Karameh Bridge to Palestinian Arabs, and the King Hussein Bridge to Jordanians.
