[Roman theatre, Amman.]
The Roman theatre in Amman. And we aren’t talking about the outskirts of town here, but smack in the middle of the city. It’s an incredible sight to see this nearly 2000 year old ruin amidst apartment blocks and a busy city road.
In Roman times Amman was known as Philadelphia.
