        • Going down hill, after visiting the gallery of fine arts just found this amazing contemporary place, full of nice varied spaces, with sculptures, some historic ruins, a library and an exhbition - "The pomegranate and the sleeping ghoul" . The view is also amazing and it allowed me to rest and to be isolated of the chaos of Amman. Love it!
        • Cafe has very nice drinks. View is beautiful and the sitting area is so beautiful and nice. Great environment to hang out and relax or study or do some work.
        • Also in the Creative Trail of the neighborhood of Jebel al-Weibdeh in Amman lies Darat al-Funun. Founded in 1993 it houses three traditional buildings of the 1920s, alongside the archaeological remains of a six-century Byzantine church built over a Roman shrine. The main three-floored building of the complex served until 1938 as the official residence of the British Commander of the Arab Legion, Colonel F. G. Peake, and afterwards as a club for the British Officers until 1956. Darat al Funun is a venue for Jordanian artists, poets and musicians as well as those from the Arab world at large. You can drink Turkish coffee on the tables around the fountain in its courtyard.
