Why Amman & Jerash is a Must-Visit for UK Travellers
Spread across sunlit white limestone hills, welcoming Amman charms first-timers immediately with its Roman Amphitheatre buzzing beside aromatic spice alleys — while just 45 minutes north lies Jerash, hailed by archaeologists as the best-preserved provincial Roman city outside Italy. Walk towering Hadrian's Arch, the sweeping colonnaded Oval Forum, and soaring Temple of Artemis before sipping syrupy pistachio knafeh downtown.
