The Temple of Hercules and the Roman Corinthian Column in Amman is a historical site that dates back to the Roman Empire. The temple is believed to have been built during the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius in the 2nd century AD. The temple was dedicated to the Roman god Hercules, who was worshipped as a protector of the city.
The temple is located on top of a hill in the center of Amman, overlooking the city. The temple was built using local limestone and features a rectangular shape with a large central courtyard. The temple's entrance is adorned with two large columns, which are believed to have been part of a larger colonnade that surrounded the temple.
The most prominent feature of the temple is the Roman Corinthian column, which stands at a height of 13 meters. The column is made of white marble and is decorated with intricate carvings and designs. The column is believed to have been part of a larger temple complex, which included a number of other columns and buildings.
The temple and the column have undergone extensive restoration work over the years, and visitors can now explore the site and learn about its history. The temple is open to the public and is a popular tourist attraction in Amman. Visitors can climb to the top of the hill to get a panoramic view of the city and the surrounding area. The site is also a popular spot for photographers, who come to capture the beauty of the temple and the column against the backdrop of the city.
