The Jordan Tourism Board said Amman Citadel receives more than 125,000 visitors each year.
You cannot find a place with so many civilizations that left their marks in a single location. The citadel has this unique diversity that ranges from Assyrians to Babylonians, Persians, Greeks, and Romans, as well as the Umayyad and Ayyubid dynasties, a truly unique experience
The Roman Temple of Hercules that dates to the second century is one of the most popular attractions at the citadel. On display is a huge hand, which is believed to be from a 12-meter-high statue of Hercules.
The Roman Theatre
is the most impressive monument of old Philadelphia, as Amman was known when it was part of the Roman Decapolis, the cities network on the frontier of the Roman Empire in the southeastern Levant. According to an inscription, it was built during the era of the Antonine emperors, at the end of the 2nd century AD.
Its tiered, semicircular seating space, carved into the Jabal Al-Jofeh hill in three horizontal sections with a total of 44 rows can seat around 6,000 people. It faces north so that the audiences are protected from the sun. Social rank dictated the places for the audience. The urban poor, foreigners, slaves, and women were restricted to the upper section. The stage building, about 100 m wide, was probably three stories high. The wooden stage elevates 1.5 meters from the chorus performance space, the orchestra, which has a radius of 13 meters.
Today, the Roman Theatre is again in use for performances, concerts, and events. In addition, halls on both sides of the stage house two small heritage museums: The Folklore Museum and the Museum of Popular Traditions.
The King Abdullah Mosque in Amman – A Spectacular Jordanian Gem
No visit to Jordan is complete without a stop at the King Abdullah Mosque in Amman. By all accounts, the mosque is a prime example of Islamic architecture
The King Abdullah Mosque in Amman is instantly recognizable by its beautiful blue dome, under which as many as 3,000 devotees can gather for prayer. Anyone who spends even a minimal amount of time in the city will almost certainly see the mosque since it’s one of the most distinguishable buildings in the city.
Construction of the King Abdullah Mosque in Amman began in 1982 on the orders of the late King Hussein of Jordan. The mosque, which was to be a tribute to King Hussein’s grandfather, King Abdullah I of Jordan, was finally completed in 1986.
