We will continue overland to Jerash, the Graeco-Roman city (ancient Gerasa), and close second to Petra on the list of favorite destinations in Jordan. Boasting an unbroken chain of human occupation dating back more than 6,500 years and hidden for centuries in sand before being excavated and restored over the past 70 years, Jerash is a fine example of the grand, formal and provincial Roman towns found throughout the Middle East. One can walk beneath four imposing gates or down the “Street of Columns” north from the “Oval Plaza” while stepping over the tracks of chariot wheels still visible in the paving stones then drive to Amman for overnight.
Tonight, we’ll enjoy dinner at Romero Restaurant in Amman.
