One of the seven "mountains" that make up Amman, the Citadel offers its visitor a treasure trove of archaeological history. Perched atop a hill, it holds a significant place in Jordan's heritage. This archaeological site offers a glimpse into the past and a panoramic view of the modern city.
The Citadel's ruins date back to various civilizations that have left their mark on the region. Visitors can explore the remnants of ancient structures, including the Roman Temple of Hercules and the Umayyad Palace complex. These remnants tell the story of the city's evolution through time.
From the Citadel's elevated position, you can enjoy a sweeping vista of Amman's urban landscape and the surrounding hills. The view, especially at sunset, creates a serene and captivating atmosphere that is ideal for quiet reflection or photography.
