The Citadel. It is not a stop you would want to miss due to its great significance. You will notice that it's situated on an L-shaped mountain, where it beautifully captures the incredible views of the seven mountains that assemble Amman, where you can inhale the surrounding atmosphere.

What you can see in the Citadel:

• Cistern: This large cistern, located to the right of the vestibule, was the primary water supply to the governor's palace. 
• Byzantine Church: The Byzantine basilica's nave is flanked by two rows of columns. The photo looks eastwards from the entrance down the length of the nave, towards the partially reconstructed semicircular wall of the apse.
• Umayyad Mosque: The remains of the Umayyad governor’s palace mosque dating from the 8th century
• Governor's Palace and Mosque: The dome is a modern reconstruction that gives the building an odd, Pac-Man-like appearance. The entrance to the vestibule is the large semicircular archway below the dome.
• Temple of Hercules: Larger than any temple in Rome itself, the massive structure faces east and is seen here from the front (northeast corner.) The temple portico is framed by six 33-foot-tall columns
• Dome of the Vestibule: The interior of the dome of the Umayyad vestibule is shown here. The original dome's interior would have been painted and plastered, giving a much different appearance.

We will now head off to the Roman Amphitheater, which is another impressive remnant of Roman rule in Jordan. Whilst it isn't quite the Colosseum, it's an interesting place to take in for an hour or so.

At the end of this eventful day, we will escort you back to your hotel, where you will sit back, relax, reflect on the cultural enrichments of the day and look forward to the adventures we are about to embark on tomorrow.
