Amman's life continues after sunset. There's dancing, dining, and drinking in all parts of the city. Although a section of the people here are still very conservative and women have to wear a veil, Amman is relatively more liberal. The local culture has taken westernization in its stride to evolve Amman's nightlife into a beast unique to itself. Cafes like Cafe Kepi on Paris Square stay open as late as 1:30 a.m. Blue Fig on Irbid Street has several bars, a restaurant, and a movie complex. Dancing and clubbing are exclusively limited to registered hotels and often come at high prices. JJ's at the Grand Hyatt is considered the best in all of Jordan.
