Well it is a great place in Amman,
I won't say it is a Citadel as the ruins are presenting the Umayyad Palace and a modern museum and some Fundaments of Roman Temple ruins.
but should say it worth the visit as it is great.

That is an awesome typical Roman Theater where the Gladiators were fighting and Roman citizens were watching!
Down stairs from both directions there is the lovely and interesting National Museum which you must see once you're in the Theater.

There is plenty of beautiful Mosques but the top 3 in Amman are:
1- Al Ashrafiah Mosque.
2-Al Jamaa Mosque.
3-Al Housain Mosque.
You have to hear the beautiful azan which happens 5 times per day in any Mosque!

Roads in Amman are very similar to the roads of Beirut and Aleppo and Damascus!
You can see Palms around the ways!
and many traffic jams in Rush hour!

The museum of the citadel is really great and it has many treasures from the Roman Period and Greek and Islamic too!
But the Amazing thing also is the Neanderthals Bones and tools!
This is the second museum were I saw such things after our museum in Aleppo.
