Qasr Al-Azraq is a built from black bassalt and was built as a hunting lodge by the Umayyads, but is more famously known as TE Lawrences headquarters in more recent history. You will be transferred back to your hotel in Amman.

About Amman
Amman, de hoofdstad van Jordanië, ligt op een reeks heuvels, met Romeinse ruïnes, drukke soeks en een warm onthaal aan het begin van elke Jordaniëreis.
De Citadel van Amman kroont de Jabal al-Qal'a met de Tempel van Hercules, het Omajjadenpaleis en weids uitzicht over de stad. Daaronder biedt het in de heuvel uitgehouwen Romeinse theater plaats aan duizenden, en de soeks in het centrum rond de Grote Husseini-moskee verkopen specerijen, goud en zoetigheid, met de geur van koffie en kardemom in de lucht.
Top-ranked sights in Amman: Petra, Jerash (Gerasa), Ajloun Castle.
