Overview

Start your day in Amman with a visit to the Amman Citadel, one of the oldest continuously inhabited sites in the world. Explore ruins from Roman, Byzantine, and Umayyad periods while enjoying panoramic views over the city.

Next, head to the Roman Theatre, a 2nd-century amphitheatre carved into the hillside. Imagine the crowds that once gathered for performances as you climb to the top for scenic views of city centre Amman.

Visit the King Abdullah I Mosque, famous for its striking blue dome and peaceful interior. Visitors are welcome with modest dress, and the mosque offers a serene contrast to the bustling city.

In the afternoon, drive north to Ajloun Castle, a 12th-century hilltop fortress built to defend against Crusader invasions. Explore its towers, battlements, and passageways while enjoying panoramic views of the surrounding forests and valleys.

Activity itinerary

King Abdullah Mosque

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
The blue-domed King Abdullah I Mosque, built in the 1980s by the late King Hussein as a memorial to his grandfather, is open to Non-Muslim visitors. The nave with an area of 1,615 m2 has the capacity to house 3,000 worshippers. It is octogonal and distiguished for not having pillars inside. Its dome of 35 m in diameter has a height of 31 metres. A source of radiation was placed in the middle taking the form of a golden star culminating in the Ninety Nine Most Beautiful Names of Allah surrounding the dome's neck. The suspended chandelier of 168 lanterns consists of three circles with the Holy Quranic Verse with the word Allah recurring on every lantern. The fertile land is expressed in the form of a red carpet made of an ornamental textile of recurring patterns meant to direct worshippers towards the Kiblah. All the walls, including the Kiblah, the pulpit, and the Mihrab are panelled with wooden and marble oriels.

The Citadel

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Jabal al-Qala is one of the seven mountains of Amman, which the Ammonians have long taken as the seat of their rule in the city, followed by Greece, romans and Byzantines who occupied the city respectively until it was occupied by the Islamic conquest in the 7th century AD, where the Umayyad Palace was built on its top. Mount Qalaa in Amman emerged as the capital of the Ammonians.

Roman Theatre

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket not included
The Roman Amphitheatre is a Roman theatre located in the eastern part of the Jordanian capital Amman, precisely at the foot of Mount Jufa on one of the hills opposite Amman Castle. Greek writing on one of the pillars indicates that this amphitheatre was built in honour of Emperor Antonius Pius, who visited Amman in 130 AD.

Al Balad – Downtown Amman (Pass by)

Visit the old city centre & AL-Husseini Mosque

Ajloun Castle

  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Visiting the town of Ajlun with its fortress; one of the best preserved examples of medieval Arab military architecture in the entire Middle East, which was once governed by Saladin. Enjoy the magnificent view into the Jordan Valley. Proceed to visit the Greco-Roman City of Jerash, also known as the City of the thousand columns. Jerash showcases the grandeur of Imperial Rome (and is sometimes referred to as the Pompeii of the East). It is considered one of the largest, and most well preserved sites of Roman architecture in the World outside Italy. As the most pristine Decapolis City (meaning ten cities in Greek) in the modern world, Jerash’s prosperity can be admired in the colonnaded high street and lovely Oval Piazza. Return to Amman.
