The CitadelMake your way to Amman's Citadel, a historical site sitting on the highest hill in Amman, which has been occupied since the Bronze Age. It is surrounded by a 1700-meter-long wall that has been rebuilt several times during both the Bronze and Iron Ages. There is a lot to see; however, the most remarkable sights are the Umayyad Palace and the iconic Temple of Hercules. Pay a visit to the Citadel’s Archeological Museum and inspect its collection of ancient antiques and artifacts. This collection of antiques on one hilltop makes the Amman citadel one of the best places to visit and admire. The Citadel site is a large open-air museum with several key structures and a museum that provides context for the ruins.
