RE: Architecture Moments™ 9: Amman Citadel of Jordan

We caught a taxi going up from the hotel, wandered around by ourselves and walked back down to the city afterwards. We had just arrived in Jordan the night before, and had booked a private car hire and driver to take us around the rest of the country. He charged by the day, so we decided to do Amman by ourselves because we wanted to relax a bit before we started the rest of our journey which was quite a packed one. We even went to Jerash ourselves, I mean by taxi of course, that was really fascinating. Did you go?

Oh alright, I understand. Riding a taxi or any vehicle for that matter to reach the elevated Citadel would surely save time and energy. I'd also imagine your walk downhill back to downtown Amman wouldn't be as exhausting compared to ascending to the site by foot.

During my visit, I hired a local driver/tour guide who took me around the country. Due to time constraints, Jerash was not included in our itinerary. But I got to experience Petra, the Dead Sea, Madaba, Mount Nebo, Baptism Site of Jesus at the Jordan River, and other interesting locations which I'll share on Hive in the future. 😊
