Colonnaded Street - Jerash, Jordon


Another Roman ruin… Jerash is primarily known for its colonnaded main street which stretches for 800m. The street is paved with the original stones, in which there are visible ruts worn by chariots that still exist. What’s interesting about the ruins is how each of them has the basic features of a city today… theaters (entertainment), sport area (hippodrome), main street, and temples/churches. While civilization has changed the basis still existed 2000 years ago.
