Hidden in a small valley in the west of Jordan, Pella is another proof of Jordan's rich and long history. While not as impressive as Jerash or Petra, Pella is still worth the voyage.
The first thing to strike me, was the remains of an old temple in the base of the valley, and the small pool behind it, with trees and houses, giving it the look of a small oasis. But I decided to first head up the hill, to another, smaller, temple, the East Church. Much smaller in scale, it nevertheless has a great vantage point to oversee Pella, the surrounding hills, and the views stretch across the Jordan Valley into the Occupied Territories of the West Bank. The temple itself was very modest, and most of it is still in ruins.
