Jerash Jerash is a must see. Well-preserved 2 000-year-old Greco-Roman ruins are the reason to come. Hundreds of columns, temples, a theater and streets are worth a detour. Jerash which was discovered in the 1920s and the ruins are in excellent shape. Before the excavations Jerash was primarily a Circassian town. Some of the inhabitants actually had their houses in the ruins. Jerash is less than 50 kilometer from Amman and can be visited as a daytrip.
