Zarqa is Jordan's second most populous city after Amman, with a population of roughly 790,000, and sits about 25 kilometres northeast of the capital on the edge of the eastern desert. It observes Eastern European Time (EET, UTC+3) year-round; Jordan abolished daylight saving in 2022 and now stays on a single offset. The city is Jordan's manufacturing heartland, hosting more than half of the kingdom's factories and the country's only oil refinery, operated by the Jordan Petroleum Refinery Company. Zarqa also holds a central place in Palestinian refugee history: Zarqa Camp, established in 1949, is the oldest of Jordan's UNRWA-administered camps and the city absorbed further waves of displaced people after 1967 and the 1990–91 Gulf War. Founded in 1902 by Chechen migrants, modern Zarqa has grown around its industrial belt, military bases, and the Zarqa River basin.
