Amman Capital City of Jordan

Amman, the capital of Jordan, is a fascinating city of contrasts -- a unique blend of old and new, ideally situated on a hilly area between the desert and the fertile Jordan Valley. In the commercial heart of the city, ultra-modern buildings, hotels, smart restaurants, art galleries and boutiques rub shoulders comfortably with traditional coffee shops and tiny artisans' workshops. Everywhere there is evidence of the city's much older past. Due to the city's modern-day prosperity and temperate climate, almost half of Jordan's population is concentrated in the Amman area. The residential suburbs consist of mainly tree-lined streets and avenues flanked by elegant, almost uniformly white houses in accordance with a municipal law, which states that all buildings must be faced with local stone.

AMMAN, JORDAN (4K City Tour) Stunning Aerial, Drone, Walking, and Night 4K Footage

AMMAN, JORDAN (4K City Tour) Stunning Aerial, Drone, Walking, and Night 4K Footage features spectacular aerial, walking, and drone video footage shot in the night and day, great for travel, visit, vacation, and tourism planning set to original music. Amman is the capital and largest city of Jordan, and the country's economic, political, and cultural center. With a population of 4,007,526, Amman is the largest city in the Levant region, and the sixth-largest city in the Arab world.

The earliest evidence of settlement in Amman comes from a Neolithic site known as 'Ain Ghazal, which reached its height around 7000 BC. During the Iron Age, the city was known as Rabbath Ammon and served as the capital of the Ammonite civilization. In the 3rd century BC, Ptolemy II Philadelphus, Pharoah of Ptolemaic Egypt, rebuilt the city and renamed it Philadelphia, making it a regional center of Hellenistic culture. Under Roman rule, Philadelphia was one of the ten Greek cities of the Decapolis before being directly ruled as part of Arabia Petraea. The Rashidun Caliphate conquered the city from the Byzantines in the 7th century AD, and gave it its current name of Amman. Throughout most of the Middle Ages, the city alternated between periods of devastation and abandonment and periods of relative prosperity as the center of the Balqa region. Amman was largely abandoned from the 15th century until 1878, when Ottoman authorities began settling Circassian refugees there.

Amman's first municipal council was established in 1909. Amman witnessed rapid growth after its designation as Transjordan's capital in 1921, and after several successive waves of refugees: Palestinians in 1948 and 1967; Iraqis in 1990 and 2003; and Syrians since 2011. It was initially built on seven hills but now spans over 19 hills combining 22 areas, which are administered by the Greater Amman Municipality. Areas of Amman have gained their names from either the hills (Jabal) or the valleys (Wadi) they occupy, such as Jabal Lweibdeh and Wadi Abdoun. East Amman is predominantly filled with historic sites that frequently host cultural activities, while West Amman is more modern and serves as the economic center of the city.

Approximately two million visitors arrived in Amman in 2014, which made it the 93rd most-visited city in the world and the fifth most-visited Arab city. Amman has a relatively fast growing economy, and it is ranked as a Beta− global city by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network. Moreover, it was named one of the Middle East and North Africa's best cities according to economic, labor, environmental, and socio-cultural factors. The city is among the most popular locations in the Arab world for multinational corporations to set up their regional offices, alongside Doha and only behind Dubai. It is expected that in the next 10 years these three cities will capture the largest share of multinational corporation activity in the region.

Downtown Amman, the city center area (known in Arabic as Al-Balad), has been dwarfed by the sprawling urban area that surrounds it. Despite the changes, much remains of its old character. Jabal Amman is a well-known touristic attraction in old Amman, where the city's greatest souks, fine museums, ancient constructions, monuments, and cultural sites are found. Jabal Amman also contains the famous Rainbow Street and the cultural Souk Jara market.

Residential buildings are limited to four stories above street level and if possible another four stories below, according to the Greater Amman Municipality regulations. The buildings are covered with thick white limestone or sandstone. The buildings usually have balconies on each floor, with the exception of the ground floor, which has a front and back yard. Some buildings make use of Mangalore tiles on the roofs or on the roof of covered porches. Hotels, towers and commercial buildings are either covered by stone, plastic or glass.

Early evening walk in downtown of Amman in Jordan | King Hussein Street, King Faisal Square

A visit to Amman, the capital and largest city of Jordan, is a surprising experience for many visitors. The city more closely resembles a Western city than one in the Middle East, and while we wouldn't go so far as to agree with the 50% of Jordanians who don't call Amman home who call the city an American state, it is certainly much more Western than most expect. As a base for exploring Jordan and the region, Amman is a modern metropolis with a growing population that currently stands at 4 million. Thanks to its size, Amman is a city that should be visited with some plan, as it offers a growing number of attractions, apart from being just a starting point for visiting Petra and other major sites in Jordan.

Visiting Amman Citadel Hill in Capital City of Jordan | Food | SIM | Currency | Travel | Backpackers

Today, I am visiting Amman Citadel Hill but before that, I will share my experience in the city like Food, restaurants, Currency exchange, SIM, etc.

It is my second day in Jordan and I can surely tell you, that I am obsessed with this country. It is that much amazing. Right now I am in Amman and reside in a Downtown area.

❃ ???????????????? ???????? ???????? ???????????????? ????????????????????????????????????????:
The restaurant was very beautiful and their menu has completely Arabic dishes. The food was really tasty but their service towards the tourists was literally not so good, I had a very bad experience with them. It cost me 550 INR I ordered a salad and a mix of veggies and rice.

❃ ???????????????????? ???????????????????????????? ????????????????:
It is the Citadel. a beautifully conserved property with a top-notch museum on site. This must-see attraction is in Amman for anybody with an interest in archaeology or history. The museum was modest and well-organized, with excellent English descriptions in every section. It was also really intriguing. The recreation of the entry hall was magnificent, and the Roman remains were intriguing. Awe-inspiring vistas of the city and the amphitheater. Worth the trip.
Visiting Amman citadel, description

❃ ????????????????????????????????????:
Here a lot of people come to work and even Bangladeshi peoples are also there and even Indians are also here. They migrate here with a work visa and which cost around 60000 INR(yearly visa) for Indians.

❃ ???????????????????????????????? ????????????????????????????????:
I got 70 JD for 100 dollar exchange, and here Money gram and western union both are available and even they will accept cash for exchange.

❃ ???????????? ????????????????
I have purchased a sim card from Omnia as they offered a very good plan.

Amman City , Jordan 4K By Drone 2023

Amman City 2023 - Jordan 2023
Amman City 4K - Jordan 4K

Amman, capital of Jordan

Amman is the capital and most populous city of Jordan, and the country's economic, political and cultural centre. Situated in north-central Jordan, Amman is the administrative centre of the Amman Governorate. The city has a population of 4,007,526 and a land area of 1,680 square kilometres. Today, Amman is considered to be among the most liberal and westernized Arab cities. It is a major tourist destination in the region, particularly among Arab and European tourists. Amman derives its name from the 13th century BC when the Ammonites named it Rabbath Ammon, with the term Rabbath meaning the Capital or the King's Quarters. Over time, the term Rabbath was no longer used and the city became known as Ammon. The influence of new civilizations that conquered the city gradually changed its name to Amman.The Romans conquered much of the Levant in 63 BC, inaugurating a period of Roman rule that lasted for four centuries. In the northern modern-day Jordan, the Greek cities of Philadelphia (Amman), Gerasa, Gedara, Pella and Arbila joined with other cities in Palestine and Syria; Scythopolis, Hippos, Capitolias, Canatha and Damascus to form the Decapolis. Roman rule in Jordan left several ruins across the country, some of which exist in Amman, such as the Temple of Hercules at the Amman Citadel, the Roman Theatre, the Odeon, and the Nymphaeum. The two theatres and the Nymphaeum fountain were built during the reign of Emperor Antoninus Pius around AD 161. The theatre was the larger venue of the two and had a capacity for 6,000 attendees. The Umayyads built much later a large palace on the Amman Citadel hill, known today as the Umayyad Palace. Amman was later destroyed by several earthquakes and natural disasters, including a particularly severe earthquake in 747. During the last ten years the city has experienced an economic, cultural and urban boom. The large growth in population has significantly increased the need for new accommodation, and new districts of the city were established at a quick pace. This strained Jordan's scarce water supply and exposed Amman to the dangers of quick expansion without careful municipal planning.
