Before talking about the ruins, citadels and other remains, Amman is known for its modernity. The Al-Abdali district is proof of this since it is mainly touristic. Shopping enthusiasts will be amazed by the Abdali Mall. This space is entirely dedicated to shopping and amusement: cinema, supermarket, grocery store, and restaurants. Rainbow Street is mind-boggling for those wanting to do even more shopping. It is known for its art galleries, fashion boutiques and crafts. However, many restaurants are also available if some are a little hungry during the trip.
On another note, the King Abdullah Mosque is a must. This mosque is now presented as one of the emblems of Jordan. In addition to being a real place of worship whose magnificence is reckoned, it also has pieces of Islamic art and a museum to discover. That said, there is much more to see regarding art in the area. The Darat al Funun House of Arts is remarkable and worth a visit.
Much further away, the Roman theatre will impress everyone who goes there. If in the second century, the monument welcomed spectators, today, it is mainly used as an excavation site to retrace the time's customs. By the way, the Jabal al-Qal'a Citadel is another interesting archaeological site. Amman's rich past is highlighted here with a tour of the ruins, the Umayyad palace and the Temple of Hercules. It is through these remains that this bygone era has been immortalized.
Nevertheless, visitors can take guided tours to learn more about the capital's history. They can visit the Amman Underground, the private La Storia complex of Mount Nebo, and the Mukawi of Amman.
For those who want to discover the city at nightfall, it is good to note that Amman is generally lively. The atmosphere during the evenings is quite festive. Indeed, the streets are filled with places conducive to entertainment, such as bars and restaurants. ◄
