Jerash -



Jerash, located 48 kilometers north of Amman is considered one of the largest and most well-preserved sites of Roman architecture in the world outside Italy. Within the remaining city walls, archaeologists have found the ruins of settlements dating back to the Neolithic Age, indicating human occupation at this location for more than 6500 years. We reckon its colonnaded streets, baths, theaters, plazas and arches are in pretty good nick considering it's age.
