Thank you for the photos! It's a shame it's such a short visit as it would have been nicer to see the 2 couples together for a longer period of time.

Personally I preferred Rania's outfit as it was a bit more demure than Mehriban's. Mehriban has a very glamorous look from what I have seen of her and reminds me of Joan Collins in the way she dresses sometimes. I was surprised to learn she is only 45 though, she looks at least 5-10 years older than that imho.

They look like sisters in face in these Petra photos. Mrs Aliyeva is older than QRania and this is obvious but she is trully stunning.

Mrs. Aliyeva looks stunning. She is one gorgeous grandmother!

she is grandmother? I didn't know that then she is one of the most beautiful grandmother in the world:smile:
BTW no gala dinner?

that shame and strangenthe Jordanian Palace always release a pucs for sush event,maybe they will do it later?

Her older daughter, Leyla, had twin sons in December 2008.

I don´t believe it.

It's actually rare for the Royal Palace to release photos from the gala banquets held in Jordan. Those that they do release tend to be sit-downs held just before the event (Luxembourg grand duke's visit springs to mind) or a photo-op as the two couples prepare to walk into the banquet room (Spain's state visit a few years ago). I only remember one set of photos from an actual banquet and I think that was last fall, though I can't remember the exact details.

Rare? The JRF almost always issue some photos of the evening events. It may not release extensive photos like other royals but there is usually at least 1 or 2.
