MARTYR’S MEMORIAL MUSEUM OF JORDAN
The Martyr’s Memorial Museum was established in Amman under the tutelage of King Hussein. Unique among museums in the Middle East, it serves as both a solemn memorial to Jordanian fallen soldiers, while also telling the story of the Jordanian Armed Forces (JAF) since the countries modern inception as a result of the Arab Revolt during the First World War up unto the current era. The building itself is a simple but elegant square stone structure surrounded by a spectacularly laid stone formation that’s led to by a stone stairway from the street-level entrance.
As a visitor walks up to the Memorial, they’re surrounded by concentric levels of trees and inlaid marble sections that’s a calming change of scene compared to the crazy bustle that’s downtown
