Amman is the capital city of Jordan and can be quite a daunting place if you haven't been to Middle Eastern cities before.
The Roman remains of "Philadelphia" are quite impressive.
It really is a huge ampitheatre.


As always, the mosques can be quite impressive.

And the roads can be a nightmare to cross!

Still, you can always relax in the hotel lobby!

From Amman we took day trips to Jerash and the Desert
Castles
before heading off to the Dead Sea
