Ideal place to visit if you're interested in ancient ruins but don't have the time to travel to Petra.
The citadelle and its Hercules Temple its a must if you are in Amman. It's nice to see those old ruins still there and try to imaginate how use to be ages ago.
We did a quick stop at the Citadel. Beautiful old ruins and stunning view over city. So much history here.
Roman ruins of the old town, the history around Amman is wonderful to see. There is still more to be discovered that is the beauty.
