Take a trip to Amman on your Jordan vacation.
Situated in a hilly area of northwestern Jordan are Amman, the country’s capital and largest city. An ancient city, Amman currently serves as Jordan’s political, cultural and commercial centre and an excellent starting point on a Jordan vacation.
Ammn is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. The history spans nine millennia, dating as far back as the Stone Age. Amman has been inhabited by many civilizations including the Assyrians, the Babylonians and the Persians before becoming part of the Roman Empire. Under the Ottoman Empire, the city fell into decline but was revived with the construction of a railroad in 1902. Amman became a busy trade route and began to grow and when Jordan became independent in 1946, Amman was named as its capital.
