I went on the King's Road on the way to Amman. I visited Shobak Castle. It is in Jorden not too far from Petra. It is very interesting Castle. In the middle of nowhere. The next city is Karak. Huge big Castle ruins very high up. Worth a visit. Peaceful and tranquil
2. UMm Qays Archeological Site

it is a beautiful place to visit indeed, you'll get a glimpse of the history of that era by talking a hike all around. You can end your day at the restaurant (previously Romero) located on-site, with a beautiful view of the spectacular scenery and Golan Heights and Lake Tiberias. You'd wonder why I used this title for my review. Well, although Um Qays is an Archeological Site, and its ruins tell a beautiful story about a different period, but due to its location north of Jordan, the whole area is usually covered with green throughout the year, so when you get there, you'll feel the strength of the area surrounding you! you will get the perfect experience of nature and history combined.
