4. Wadi al-Mujib

Reviewed By R2Rondon - Senoia, United States
Wadi (valley in English) al-Mujib is located about 1.5 hour drive South of Amman. The site offers free parking and a remarkable experience. The entrance fee includes a life jacket that is required during the water hike (about an 1 hour each way). They sell some type of water shoes and rent a small hydrophobic bag for personal belongings which will get wet. The experience begins with a platform with a ladder that provides access to the passive river with nice photo spots between the naturally carved walls . Then you will adventure into an opposing stream lazy river with few spots that will challenge your hiking techniques. The trail is fun but it does require a bit of strength and hiking abilities. At the end, you will find a relaxing spot next to a water fall where you can enjoy the little fish that eat your dead skin from your feet. To complete the experience, you will have to return through the same path. You should enjoy the water ride down but be careful with the rocks. Also, try to enjoy gliding through the lazy river while admiring the sky and wall formation. I highly recommend this experience.

Step back 2,000 years in time with a visit to the ruins of this imposing amphitheater, which once held 5,000 spectators, and is still used today for theater and entertainment.
Reviewed By MohQut - Amman, Jordan
This is a must-see in downtown Amman, enjoy the theater, have some amazing pictures, and make sure to visit the museum inside, then enjoy a meal and a dessert in downtown.
6. The Citadel
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,295 reviews
This archaeological landmark features remnants from several different cultures.
Reviewed By jenglos
We were fortunate to arrive at the citadel about 40 mins before sunset which meant we had the most atmospheric experience watching the sunset over Amman while the birds flocked to roost, with the call to prayer playing out from the Mosque. The citadel is a real land mark sitting high above Amman so the views are spectacular over the city. The Roman amphitheater is close by, but if you don't get time to go there you get a good view of it from here. THe site itself is of great archeological importance with Roman remains ( Hercules Temple) , and those of the Palace and church. AT 2JD , this is a must when visiting Amman.

10. Darat al Funun

Reviewed By MayC309 - Shoreham-by-Sea, United Kingdom
Took us a while wandering some small back streets in order to find this gallery. It was so worth it. You go in via a small wrought iron gate, up a few stairs and find yourself looking at the remarkable remains of the Byzantine church of St George. There is not very much left but a few columns, however the space and tranquillity of the setting is lovely. The path winds up through the garden to the galleries and a small cafe. The exhibition we saw had a powerful emotional impact.....photographs of life for people in Palestine. The coffee in the cafe courtyard also packed a punch and there is a great view of the city. In the morning we had visited the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, which was good but the atmosphere here was so much more vibrant. If you only have time for one gallery make it this one.
