After Amman we hit the road to visit the whole country...In 3 weeks we must have seen almost every sites and reserves of Jordan!
Basically we first went North, but our first stop was in Iraq..............el-Amir
Iraq el-Amir, or Qasr el-Abd, is a small castle, built in 2nd Century BC, famous for its Lion....
....not for that woman even though she's a Leo!
Obviously I didn't take that picture...and for once my friend didn't screw up...probably because I gave him the directions. Eventually I almost look like myself on that photo. So for those of you who had never seen me well...hi!
After Iraq we went to Jerash (Gesara) that is probably the most beautiful site of Jordan behind Petra.
Before the Romans took it over, Jerash was one of the cities that made the Decapolis. The remains are absolutely awesome.
Now let's enter the Macellum
Yes I know that woman is there again....
I didn't mean to show such cleavage, but I had already a sunburn on my back and I tried to protect the skin under the nape of my neck!
Now back on the cardo maximus
The Propylaea...
...and here's 3 columns of Artemis' Temple
Are you bored yet?
