Roman Amphitheatre

The Roman Amphitheatre in Amman, Jordan is a 6,000-seat, 2nd-century Roman theatre that dates back to the Roman period when the city was known as Philadelphia. The theatre is built into the side of a hill and features three horizontal sections, with the highest section offering excellent sightlines and acoustics. The theatre was built in honor of Emperor Antoninus Pius and was used for various performances and events. Today, it is still used for cultural activities, concerts, and events, and houses two small heritage museums: The Folklore Museum and the Museum of Popular Traditions. Visitors can explore the iconic Roman Theatre and experience the grandeur of Roman architecture, with its clever design ensuring optimal acoustics and visibility from every seat
