Itinerary
Stop 1
A visit to the Roman Theatre is like taking a trip some 2000 years into history where the amphitheater once housed over 5000 onlookers and is still used currently for theatre events.
Stop 2
The Citadel of Amman is a good place to begin a tour of the archaeological sites of the city. It is the site of ancient Rabbath-Ammon and excavations there have revealed numerous Roman, Byzantine and early Islamic remains. Located on a hill, it not only gives visitors a perspective of the city’s incredible history but also provides stunning views of the entire area. Among the most wonderful places you can visit while in Amman, there are some places of specific interest at the Amman Citadel
Stop 3
There is much curiosity surrounding Qasr Kharana because although it looks like a castle, there is no evidence of it ever being able to defend its inhabitants. Unlike other defense castles, the towers are in fact solid and the arrow slits are too high to fire anything from. As a result of its unique construction, this landmark has drawn much attention to historians, and visitors travel here from across the globe every year to see this unique desert castle.
Stop 4
Qasr Amra Located beside Wadi Al-Butum, on the north side of Jordan’s Highway 40, roughly 85 K.M from Amman and 21 K.M southwest of Al-Azraq. is beautiful place to visit
