Amman's Roman Theater is a 6,000-seat, 2nd-century Roman theatre. It dates back to the Roman period when the city was known as Philadelphia. The theatre was built during the reign of Antonius Pius (138-161 CE). Built into the hillside, it was oriented north to keep the sun off the spectators. From Wikipedia

 

We arrived after closing but the theater still looked spectacular!

and the day is too.

There's nothing left here to lead me,

but the velvet moon"

Ancient ruins and the City of Amman, Jordan at last light. The Roman Theatre at the bottom of the frame is very well preserved and right in the centre of the City.
