- Jerash Ruins - Embark on a journey from Amman with a one-hour drive to Jerash. Travel north in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle, enjoying the views of towns and desert landscapes along the way. Upon reaching Jerash, enter this archaeological gem through its ancient city gate.
Established by Alexander the Great in the 2nd century AD and originally known as Gerasa, Jerash was among the wealthiest provincial cities of the Roman Empire. With a guide (if hired) sharing captivating tales of the city’s golden era, explore its arches, theaters, and the impressive colonnaded street. Take photos of the fascinating Oval Plaza, an oval-shaped forum, and envision the lives of its past inhabitants.
- Oval Plaza - A distinctive oval-shaped public square encircled by columns.
- Temple of Artemis - A remarkably preserved temple dedicated to the city’s patron goddess.
- Southern Theatre - A superbly preserved Roman theater with excellent acoustics, often featuring a local musician playing the bagpipe.
- Temple of Zeus - Situated on a hill overlooking the Oval Plaza, this temple provides panoramic views.
- Jerash Ruins - A grand public fountain dedicated to water nymphs.
- Arch of Hadrian - Your majestic entrance to the ancient city, a monumental three-arched gateway built to honor the visit of Roman Emperor Hadrian in 129 CE.
- Cardo Maximus - The main colonnaded street running through the city, where you can walk on original paving stones still marked by ancient chariot wheels.
- Dead Sea - After exploring Jerash, drive to the Dead Sea, the Earth’s lowest point, over 400 meters below sea level. Visit one of its resorts, such as Holiday Inn or Crowne Plaza, to relax and enjoy the therapeutic waters. Fresh towels are provided. Bask in the sunshine and admire the scenic Judean and Jordanian mountains. Apply mineral-rich mud for skin rejuvenation, then float effortlessly in the highly saline waters, renowned for their buoyancy. Capture the iconic floating pose while reading or relaxing. Primarily fed by the Jordan River, the Dead Sea offers a unique opportunity to relax, rejuvenate, and marvel at nature’s wonders.
