Amman's Roman Theatre

The Roman Theatre is the most impressive remnants of Roman Philadelphia in the city of Amman. It was built on the northern side of a hill (to keep the sun off the spectators) with three tiers: the rulers, of course, sat closest to the action, the military had the middle section, and the general public sat perched, squinting, way up the top - kata Encik Lonely Planet.


I tried to video myself while climbing down the steep stairs from the highest section, ala2 James Franco in 127 Hours (barulaa adventure sikit beb hahaks!), but had to stop after only 4 steps coz 'Mr. Gayat' kat belakang dah bising2 suruh simpan camera sebab dia yang seriau hehe.
