Photos of Amman Citadel

Here are the ruins of what was once the capital of the kingdom of Abbas Amun, dating back to the 11th century BC. The ruins of the palace were built in AD 720. The hall is quite spectacular, with a dome on top. You can walk into the hall to recall the history and feel the long river of history flowing in your blood. There are also cisterns, Byzantine churches, and the tall stone pillars that hold up the temple of Hercules. You can carefully read the introduction on the introduction board to understand where this place is and what this thing is, and take out your camera in the evening to take a magnificent scene. There is also a Jordanian National Archaeological Museum with a collection of artifacts from all over Jordan.
