- Roman Theatre - The Roman Theatre of Amman is a 6,000-seat, 2nd-century Roman theatre. A renowned landmark in Jordan’s capital, it dates back to the Roman era when the city was known as Philadelphia. The theatre and the nearby Odeon flank the new Hashemite Plaza from the south and east, respectively, while the Roman Nymphaeum is just a short walk away to the northwest.
- King Abdullah Mosque - A prime example of modern Islamic architecture, the King Abdullah Mosque honors King Abdullah I, the founder of the dynasty that continues to rule Jordan and the first King of Jordan. The vast blue dome, a cavernous, 35-meter diameter capped octagonal prayer hall, adorned with Quranic inscriptions, accommodates 3,000 Muslims for prayer at once, shading a space that can hold over 10,000 worshippers. There is also a small women’s section for 500 worshippers and a much smaller royal enclosure, while a small museum celebrates the king’s life.
This is the only mosque in Amman that openly welcomes non-Muslim visitors. Therefore, the King Abdullah Mosque is a “Must Visit” for anyone interested in the Jordanian royal family or contemporary Islamic architecture.
The King Abdullah Mosque is located about 3 kilometers east of Amman Citadel, in the heart of downtown Amman. It’s about a 1-kilometer walk from the Abdali bus and service taxi station; just turn left onto King Hussein Street.
