NYMPHAEUM

How to get there. At the beginning of the Rue des Colonnes, under the big tree on the right, just before the bridge that spans the Wadi Musa and allows access to the Byzantine church.

Visit. This large public fountain dates back to the beginning of the 2nd century and to the Roman period. It allowed the inhabitants to get water. There is not much left of it. Only the foundations and the base are still visible today. But you can easily imagine by its dimensions that it must have been imposing. You will have a better idea if you have visited Amman or Jerash before.
