Amman Jordan Tour Review
The capital Amman is situated on several hills and houses almost half of the country's population. Worth seeing in the so-called white city is the Citadel hill, once an important military and religious site. Other interesting place are the Archaeological Museum, the Roman Theater, the King Abdullah Mosque and the Abu Darweesh Mosque.
Amman is originally built on 7 hills, but spreads today over 20. It is mainly a modern city with restaurants, art galleries, malls, hotels and almost uniformly white houses in accordance with a municipal law. But Amman is changing its skyline due to the lifted ban of building taller than 4 storey houses, several skyscrapers are under construction. Amman has a rapid growth in the real estate, construction, finance and business sectors. Much older, more traditional and exotic is the downtown area - also known as the ''Souq'' - with small shops.
