Amman, Jordan Tourism

Amman Tourism

Amman's layered history is reflected in its diverse people and its varied architecture. Home to numerous churches and mosques, the city is home to a multi-denominational and multicultural population. Even within the midst of the ultra-modern commercial centre of the city there is evidence of its ancient roots, with colourful ancient souks, Roman ruins, cultural museums and monuments painting a picture of the history of the region.
