The Roman Theatre is believed to be Greek of origin, but no matter, It was the place I would always start my journey at before heading into downtown as a child.

Imagine the second biggest Roman theatre in the world among real Souqs, the arches and the shops are just lined up there watching the citadel as it sits quietly on top of the surrounding hills, diverse is what you will find here.

Jordan is a modern country with a holy river and an ancient culture - a timeless physical and spiritual panorama of prophets, miracles, and human faith. Situated as it was between the great civilizations of Egypt to the west and Mesopotamia to the east, Jordan was destined to be a busy crossroads. The very name of the country retains the unique baptismal aura of a holy river and a blessed land.
Visitors and citizens daily walk through the plains, valleys, hills, mountains and streams whose names were forever fixed into human consciousness by the profound messages of prophets who walked this land and crossed its river during their missions on Earth.
Many of the sites where they performed miracles or reached out to ordinary people have been identified and excavated, and are easily accessible to visitors.
Jordanians are friendly and welcoming to visitors, constantly calling out "Welcome in Jordan".
