Jerash is approximately 40 km north of Amman. Compared to the hustling and bustling city of Amman, Jerash's lush, rolling hill country is rural. The ancient Greco-Roman city of Jerash has the best preserved Roman ruins and is the largest ancient Roman city in the region.  It is the second most popular historical site in Jordan. Walk the ancient cobblestone streets of the city where chariot wheels still have their impression in the city’s center. Jerash was an ancient Roman base in the East. The sites within the city include the Corinthium column, Hadrian's Arch, circus/hippodrome, two large temples (dedicated to Zeus and Artemis), the unique oval Forum surrounded by a fine colonnade, colonnaded street or cardo, two theatres (the Large South Theatre and smaller North Theatre), two baths, several small temples, and a circuit of city walls. Among the small temples include more than thirteen churches with mosaic floors. In addition, there is a cathedral and an ancient synagogue with detailed mosaics, including the story of Noah and the Great Flood found beneath a church. The city had been re-inhabited for centuries after Roman rule. The site is vast and one could only image what the city was like in its time.  Let the excitement begin!
