Around Jordan حول الأردن
When I decided to make this video the goal was to visit all the cities of Jordan and record the nice places and have the nice memories in one video.
It took me around 14 months to finish this project.
I was always amazed and pleased with every place I visited and it was a wonderful experience to get this done with my friends and family.
I hope you enjoy the video and i do recommend to go around the country and feel the joy of this adventure.

Wadi Arab Dam & Umm Qays | Northmost Part of Jordan | EcoHikersJO | Irbid, Jordan
Hello Folks,
This video is about a trip I took with an adventure travel group present in Jordan known by the name of Eco Hikers.
This trip was a one-day itinerary to the Northmost part of Jordan, with a hike to the Wadi Arab Dam and exploring the historical site of Umm Qays, ending up at a local house trying traditional cuisine.
This group came up with a pretty good concept of cleaning alongside hikes, making this world a better place. Kudos to that.
The Overall Trip Cost was around 18 JD (inclusive of everything)

Jerash Jordan Best Preserved Roman City
Jerash is the capital and the largest city of the Jerash Governorate in Jordan, but in ancient times it was one of the wealthiest and most cosmopolitan cities in the ancient Near East. Settled by humans as early as the Neolithic period (c. 7500-5500 BCE) and founded as a Hellenistic city in the 2nd century BCE, Jerash is today noted for its fine Roman and Byzantine ruins, which rank among the largest and best preserved in the world. Jerash is located 48 km north of Amman - the capital of Jordan - and 40 km south of Irbid, Jordan. Jerash is one of the most visited sites in Jordan after the Nabataean city of Petra.

Also, every year Jerash hosts the Jerash Festival of Culture and Arts, a three week summer program filled with folk dance, music, and theatrical performances.

sawwa7 Tour to Ajloun-Jordan .where to go in Ajloun
متاز عجلون بإعتدال مناخها، وكثرة غاباتها، ووفرة مياهها وخصوبة تربتها، كل هذه العوامل أهلت عجلون لتكون مكاناً للاستيطان البشري منذ أقدم الأزمان ويدل على هذا التاريخ الأثار التاريخية المنتشرة في مناطقها
وشكل نبع الماء الواقع بين زوبيا و تبنة مركز جذب سكاني منذ القدم وحتى ايامنا الحاضرة، حيث تقوم حول هذه المنطقة أكثر من (10) قرى وبلدات تحيط بمحمية عجلون،
يعيش في هذه القرى الاف من السكان القرويين الذين يعيشون على زراعة المحاصيل كالعنب والتين والزيتون الذي يعد أكثر الاشجار انتشاراً وشهرة في المنطقة.
اما ابرز المواقع الاثرية والتاريخية فهي قلعة عجلون المعروفة بقلعة الربض، اذ تشكل معلماً اثرياً تاريخياً بارزاً في محافظة عجلون، فقد بينت هذه القلعة على قمة تل مكسّو بالاشجار الحرجية على يد عز الدين اسامة بن منقذ احد قادة صلاح الدين الايوبي، لتكون حصناً منيعاً في وجه هجمات الصليبين، ومركزاً مشرفاً لمراقبة الطرق التجارية.
تمثل القلعة التي صمدت أمام الظواهر الطبيعية وظلت محافظة على اجزائها كاملة رغم مرور مئات السنوات، نموذجاً حياً للعبقرية الهندسية العسكرية الإسلامية، فقد اكسبها موقعها على أعلى قمة جبل عوف ميزة استراتيجية فريدة،. حيث يحيط بها خندق عميق كان يستخدم لجمع المياه ،
إضافة الى كونه يشكل حاجزاً قوياً يصعب اقتحامه فضلاً عن بواباتها المحصنة وأبراجها العالية التي كانت تشكل موقعاً فريداً للمراقبة والاستكشاف ومواقع دفاعية قوية،
في داخلها تكثر الدهاليز والممرات الضيقة إلى جانب القاعات الفسيحة التي كانت منامات للجند واصطبلاات لخيول الأيوبيين.
علاوة على آبار المياه التي تتسع لآلاف الامتار المكعبة من مياة المطر
ويمكن لمن يصعد إلى أحد ابراجها ان يستمتع بمنظر ساحر آخاذ حيث ينبسط أمامه وادي الأردن ومرتفعات القدس وسلسلة جبال سوريا ومن بينها جبل الشيخ الذي يكسوه الثلج طوال العام.
وإلى جانب القلعة كشفت الحفريات الأثرية عن بقايا كنيسة تعود إلى العهد البيزنطي المبكر.

The ancient city of Jerash (near Amman) in Jordan is considered one of the best-preserved Roman-era cities in the world. #JordanEscape
The buildings are mostly as it was during the Roman days (or how it has crumbled since).
That's over 6,000 years old!!

My name is Zahi Shaked
In 2000 I became a registered liscenced tourist guide.
My dedication in life is to pass on the ancient history of the Holy Land.
Following upon many years of travel around the world, which was highlighted by a very exciting emotional and soul-searching meeting with the Dalai Lama, I realized that I had a mission. To pass on the the history of the Holy Land, its religions, and in particular, the birth and development of Christianity.
In order to fulfill this calling in the best way possible, I studied in depth, visited, and personally experienced each and every important site of the ancient Christians. I studied for and received my first bachelors degree in the ancient history of the Holy Land, and am presently completing my studies for my second degree.(Masters)
Parralel to my studies, and in order to earn a living, I was employed for many years in advertising. What I learned there was how to attract the publics attention, generate and, increase interest, and assimilate information. All this I use as tools to describe, explain and deepen the interest in the sites that we visit. From my experience, I have learned that in this way, the Holy Land becomes more than just history, and that the large stones that we see scattered about in dissaray, join together one by one until they become - a Byzantine Church. This also happens when I lead a group of Pilgrims in the Steps of Jesus. We climb to the peak of Mount Precipice, glide over the land to the Sea of Galilee, land on the water and see the miracle which enfolds before us. This is a many faceted experience. Not only history which you will remember and cherish, but an experience which I hope will be inplanted in your hearts and minds, and will accompany you all the days of your life.
Walk through the magnificent ancient Roman city of Gerasa / Jerash near Amman | Trip to Jordan 2023
Gerasa in present-day Jerash is one of the largest and best preserved late antique cities in the Middle East. Magnificent colonnaded streets, gates and squares, two imposing temples and theaters, the remains of numerous early Byzantine churches and Umayyad buildings in the hilly landscape along a wadi make Gerasa one of the most popular destinations in Jordan.
Gerasa or Jerash is located in northern Jordan and about 40 kilometers north of Amman. The ancient city of Gerasa was part of the so-called Decapolis; the well-preserved ruins are now a tourist attraction. The modern city has about 40,000 inhabitants and is the administrative center of the governorate of Jarash.
The first traces of human settlement in Gerasa date back to the 6th millennium B.C. Bronze Age and Iron Age traces have been preserved. The name Gerasa also comes from these times. Probably later the place belonged to the Northern Kingdom of Israel.
The city, insignificant until the 1st century AD, experienced a rapid rise under Roman rule and under the Roman peace. It became part of the province of Syria and a member of the Decapolis in 64 B.C. and increasingly rivaled the older Petra as a trading city. Its inhabitants mined ore in the nearby Adschlun Mountains. From the middle of the first century, this boom led to lively building activity and a rich abundance of architectural monuments that is still impressive today.
In 106 AD, Gerasa became part of the new Roman province of Arabia Petraea. In the following decades, the Roman wars of expansion in the Near East led to a further increase in its importance; well-developed roads to Pella, Philadelphia, Dion and to the provincial capital Bos(t)ra were built. Emperor Hadrian paid a visit to the city in the winter of 129/130. In late antiquity, the political situation in the region changed radically and the city lost importance. Nevertheless, the upper class remained prosperous. This period also saw the establishment of Christianity and the construction of many churches in the city. Gerasa had its own bishop - even today it is a titular bishopric -; Bishop Placcus (or Plancus) participated in the Council of Chalcedon in 451.
Between 613 and 630 the Sassanids ruled the place. Then, soon after 636, the city fell to the Muslim Arabs. After an earthquake in 658, the so-called Cathedral of Gerasa was abandoned. The portico, which was subsequently repaired, was left to its own devices from the first half of the 8th century, and at times the area was used as a landfill. Another earthquake in 749 caused the collapse of the structure. The earthquake of 749 had devastating consequences for Gerasa, as it did for the entire region. However, more recent research shows that there was not an abrupt settlement collapse, but rather a prolonged period of decline.
During the Crusader period, Gerasa seems to have remained uninhabited. However, Fulcher of Chartres and William of Tyre mention an episode according to which in 1121 King Balduin II captured and subsequently destroyed a fortress in Gerasa that had been built only the year before by Tughtigin, the Atabeg of Damascus. This fortress has not yet been archaeologically proven.
There is also evidence of building from the Ayyubid-Mamluk period. Already at the beginning of the 13th century, however, the city is completely deserted according to the Yāqūt al-Ḥamawī.
