Checking out Jordan’s iconic ancient wonders with local historian, Amer Nizami
Can you imagine growing up with ancient ruins as your playground? What our team discovered on our recent trip to Jordan is that what makes visiting these ancient sites so special is the stories told by the locals who live and breathe their heritage. Centuries upon centuries of ineffable history are written into Jordan’s architecture. From Petra’s rock-hewn tombs to Amman’s Citadel, relics from the past continue to cut across Jordan’s cities and landscapes, oblivious to the modern world moving on around it.
In this video we talk to Amer Nizami, a historian and local guide, to take you on a true passage of time as he shares his views on Jordan’s iconic ancient wonders and what they mean to the people of Jordan today.
