The Amman Citadel is an incredible site in the capital city of Jordan, Amman. It has seen many great civilizations occupy it throughout history; from Neolithic times to the Umayyad period. Visitors to this stunning site will be able to view a range of impressive structures and artifacts, such as the Temple of Hercules, which dates back to Roman times, the Umayyad Palace and Mosque, the Byzantine Church and much more. There is also the highly renowned Jordan Archaeology Museum here - perfect for history buffs! With its incredibly long history of inhabitance, this is one of the world's oldest continuously inhabited places and a must-see for any visitor to the city.
