AMMAN
Amman is the modern and ancient capital of Jordan, known in
history as Rabbath – Ammoun and in Graeco – Roman times as
Philadelphia. No more than four hours drive from anywhere in the
country, Amman is a convenient base for any tour within the
kingdom. Your hosts, the Jordanians, are wonderfully gracious
and welcoming and most will surprise you with their excellent
English. The city is crowned by the Citadel, a hill with the
ruins of the Temple of Hercules, and a museum with artifacts
dating back to the earliest settlement in the region some
700,000 years ago. At the foot of the Citadel lies the 6,000
seat Roman Theatre.
The visit to Amman will start in the afternoon and will include
King Hussein Mosque, Royal Automobile Museum, Citadel, old souqs,
and the new part of Amman.
