🌍 Jerash through time and space | Touching a thousand-year-old civilization between Roman stone pillars ✨ Shocking at first sight ✨ Standing under the Arc de Triomphe of Hadrian, the sun penetrates the mottled stone gate, as if the Roman legion of 2,000 years ago was marching through it. The best preserved ancient city of Rome in the Middle East, once a pearl on the Silk Road, slept for thousands of years in the 8th century earthquake, and was not awakened by German explorers until 1806. Today, every slate is like an open history book, and I have become the most religious reader. 📸 Must-Check in Attractions 1️⃣ Elliptical Square: 56 Corinthian pillars are surrounded by harp, and the light and shadow of the morning are sprinkled on the stone steps. The guide mysteriously handed over a stone: "Knock and see!" The crisp melody flowed from the "music stone", and the ancient Romans had understood the sound of the music. 2️⃣ Cardo Avenue: 800 meters long stone road is full of ruts, touching those traces of different depths, and hearing the caravan camel bells. Under the colonnade is the ancient Arabic engraved "account slate", like a modern supermarket member's ledger. 3️⃣ South Theater: Try to repeat the scene of "Gladiator" standing in the center of the theater clapping, the echo can penetrate the entire 3,000 people stand! In July, it will become an open-air concert hall, but unfortunately I missed the night where Pavarotti was singing. 💡 Pro-test Raiders 🚌 Transportation: It only takes 2JD (about 20 yuan) to take the local bus from Amman North Station, and it takes 1 hour to go directly to the south gate of the ancient city, saving 200 yuan more than chartered cars! 🎫 Tickets: It is strongly recommended to buy Jordan Pass (75JD file), including Jerash + Petra two-day ticket + visa fee, and the province 40JD. ⚠️ Avoid the pit: The price of the hawker outside the scenic spot is inflated, and the sand painting refrigerator sticker from 5JD to 1JD is a reasonable price! Remember to bring enough mineral water, the price of 1JD/bottle in the scenic spot is painful. 🌟 The most memorable thing about the warm adventure is not the monuments, but the smiles of the locals. At the Temple of Artemis, the uncle white robe hard stuffed me with iced pomegranate juice; on the return minibus, the woman holding the baby suddenly invited me to her house. Although the language is not spoken, the table of chickpea mud, mint tea and hand-caught rice is more delicious than any Michelin. When the children were separated, they leaned on the window sill and shouted "come back next time". They suddenly understood the meaning of travel. Civilization will collapse, but the glory of human nature will never die. 📍 Travel TIPS ▫️ Wear: Be sure to wear sneakers! The stone road is uneven and easy to lame ▫️ Time: enter the park at 8 am or after 3 pm, Avoid the noon sun: On Friday afternoons, locals can often improvise traditional instruments in the theater. Standing in the ruins of Zeus Temple overlooking the city, the wind suddenly rises. Did the Romans watch the same sunset here 2,000 years ago? In the oblique shadow cast by the stone pillars, history and reality quietly overlap. There is no rose-colored spectacle of Petra, but it allows me to touch the most authentic temperature of civilization. #Jordan Jerash #Jordan Travel Guide #Ancient Roman Relics #Ancient Roman Site #Jordan Miracle Tour
