Quseir Amra

Qusayr Amra was built in the 8th Century by the Umayyads as a fortress and place of residence.

The castle also contained a Hamman and was adorned with non-religious wall paintings that reflected early Islamic life.
Qasr Hraneh

  • Admission ticket not included
Qasr Kharana, sometimes Qasr al-Harrana, Qasr al-Kharanah, Kharaneh, or Haraneh, is one of the best-known desert castles located in present-day eastern Jordan, about 60 kilometres east of Amman and relatively close to the border with Saudi Arabia.
Qsar Al-Azraq
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket not included
Qasr al-Azraq is a large fortress located in present-day eastern Jordan. It is one of the desert castles, located on the outskirts of present-day Azraq, roughly 100 km east of Amman. Its strategic value came from the nearby oasis, the only water source in a vast desert region.
