A Jordanian journalist toured Amman’s Citadel, a historic site with ancient ruins, amid regional tensions.
On a quiet day in Amman, Jordan, NPR journalist Alex Leff visited the Amman Citadel, a historic site atop one of the city’s seven hills, shortly after a period of tension during the Israel-Iran conflict.
The site, largely empty, revealed layers of ancient history, including remnants of a Roman temple, a Byzantine church, and an Umayyad palace, along with a massive stone hand believed to be part of a second-century statue of Hercules.
The visit offered a reflective moment amid regional instability, highlighting the enduring presence of diverse civilizations and faiths in the region.
