Colours of Amman

We went on a short trip to Amman in the beginning of autumn. In fact we only had one day to discover the whole city centre, so we had to do it fast. We started the day visiting some of the shops and a local market. I love walking around in markets, especially food markets with all the nice smells and the colours. I am a huge fan of way they sell spices in Amman, in open bags like on the picture below. It smells good and it looks lovely too. There were plenty of shops selling colourful dresses with traditional patterns. Would've loved to try on one of those...  Next stop was the Roman Theater. This theater is said to be from the 2nd century and is actually still being used for cultural activities, though nothing was on while we were there.  During our time downtown, we also passed by a few umbrella streets. This one was my favourite...                                                         Our last stop was at the Amman Citadel l
