Favorite Places
1
Turtle Green
Rainbow Street, Jabal Amman
True spirit of Amman; modern, raw, and young.
It’s comfortable in a way Amman isn’t.
Great place to read and work.
Great and creative food and drinks
It’s a Ammani meeting place
2
Jabal Al-Qal3aDuring the Adan
The Citadel, Jabal Al-Qal3a
§Peace in the midst of the city
The layering of history is amazing
Accoustics of sound is magical
3
Stairs in Jabal Amman
Off Rainbow Street
The stairs take you places - it’s like magic
They’re always disconnected from the streets around them
Great places to snack, sit, talk
4
El 7ara
Where’s your 7ara?
Where we came of age
It always maintains that symbol
Family and the 7ara
5
La Calle
l’Weibdeh and Rainbow Street
Both locations in amazing places
Cosy way to unwind after a long day at work
6
Jo Bedu
l’Weibdeh
Jordanian creativity at its best
Always something interesting and different
They managed to take pop culture and become
a part of it too.
7
Beit Ibra
First Circle
A place to create friends over the past six years
Simple, cosy, and easy going.
Design experimentation too
8
Darat Al-Funun
l’Weibdeh
A space for Ammanis to bond over culture
The location itself is beautiful and steeped in history
The most magical view of Amman

§One of the best street food vendors in Amman
§Hidden in the alleyway, an important part of Amman
§Keshneh willa nameh?

The Internet
World Wide Web
The Ammani Internet community is awesome
The community is well-connected, regardless of
time and space
It makes up for lack of public amenities in the
city like libraries, etc.
