I could give you some historical background to this significant site... but instead I'll bitch about the driver who took us up the windy mountain road to get here. One word can be used to describe 90% of drivers in Jordan (including ours) - maniac. Driving in this country is like dodgem cars - every car is covered in dents, every manoeuvre flirts with disaster and every young man (like our driver) is doubly idiotic. We saw at least one accident every day we were here - amazingly none of which involved us.
