Exploring the Roman Theater in Amman

I am Alexis from Rome. Being a fan of old buildings, I have enjoyed travelling and exploring my own city and nearby cities. However, I discovered a famous landmark similar to our local attractions somewhere in Amman, Jordan. Without any hesitation, I booked a ticket to Amman via Alitalia. Basing from my on board experience, I think that my ticket was worth it because the services provided by the staff, and their amenities in general, are top notch. When I have arrived at Amman, I quickly strolled around the city before proceeding to the main reason why I booked a ticket to Amman in the first place: visit the Roman Theater. The theater was really fascinating. What interests me more is that it’s still functional. They say that a few concerts are still held on the theater. I enjoyed my trip to Amman.
