His Majesty King Abdullah on Sunday visited the northern governorate of Irbid where he was greeted by thousands of its citizens and community leaders.



The Royal motorcade stopped every now and then and His Majesty the King stepped down to shake hands and chat with citizens and tribesmen and listen to their concerns.



The tour is part of a series of visits to Jordan's 12 governorates to check on people's conditions and listen to their demands.
