Less than an hour north of Amman lies the ancient city of Jerash, a well-reserved Roman city.
Climbing up to the left you find the South Theatre, probably the best-preserved building of Jerash and still sometimes the scene of local performances. From here, you can stroll along the ruins, and fantasize about how it must have been in its heydays. Highlights include the various churches, some of which still with mosaics on the floor, the Nymphaeum, and the Temple of Artemis, the Goddess of Jerash. Walking back through the colonnaded street you wonder how it is possible that there are so few visitors to this interesting town.
