Jerash was worth it

I liked Jerash although the guide later fought with another guide. The car wasn’t prestigious given all the money I paid. Didn’t find the driver when I finished my tour. Wasn’t asked what I wanted for lunch. It was just chosen for me. Wasn’t shown the museum in Citadel. Other than that, all went well.

The Ruins

I think by far, this trip to the Jarash was the most easy and enjoyable one for me during my week stay in Jordan. Located in the northern part of Amman, it's an easy less than a 2-hour drive from the city. Passing along mountains and valleys of beautiful colours different shades depending on the ray of light of the sun. The city in ruins pre-dates back the Roman era of grandeur- it's amazing! Don't skip this place when you're in Jordan it's worth visiting.
