Jerash

by MattHodgson - last update: Jun 14, 2005

Roman City of Jerash

View of the Forum
After being hungover all day we finally ended up Jerash after visting Pella, Umm Qais and Aijlun. The size of the city is masssive and holds two theatres to give an impression of grounds. We spent a good two to three hours walking around and finished off the trek with our first try on sheesha pipe. This city once held 15,000 people and dates from 64BC. The site is only an hour from Amman.

Pros:"Second best historical site in Jordan"
Cons:"Not good with a hangover"
In A Nutshell:"Finish of a days tour of the north in this large roman city"
