Con 12 años vi como un camión atropellaba a mi mejor amigo y a mi hermano al mismo tiempo. Creía que no vería nada más duro en mi vida hasta que vi los maniquíes terriblemente acabados de este museo.

This is quite an old-fashioned museum, with dioramas, but still well worth visiting. Theres scenes of a street, Bedouin life, traditional weaving, plus urban and rural sitting rooms. Theres some beautiful furniture, though its a bit neglected, which is a shame, and also some cabinets of weapons. Labels are detailed and informative.

Несколько странно, что вход в Этнографический музей находится внутри Римского амфитеатра. Мы искали, искали снаружи - не нашли. При этом вход в театр платный 3 динара. И потом еще плата за вход в музей 1 динар. Посетить только музей этнографии или только Иорданский музей народных традиций не получится. Правда, охрана на входе не очень придирчива, мы просто зашли вовнутрь, и нас не остановили. Музей небольшой, в нем представлена выставка национальных костюмов, древних украшений, мозаик 6-го века из Джараша и Мадабы.

박물관 대체 어딨는거야 돌아다니다가 끝내 찾지 못하고 에잇 로만 극장부터 가봐야지 했더니 극장 입구로 들어오면 양 쪽 옆에 박물관 2개 있었네요!This Museum was inside of the Roman Theater. I wanted to visit a museum before roman theater and thought it is located in other building not inside of roman theater so walked around near places but couldnt find it... however it was within roman theater :))저처럼 박물관이 어딨는지 빙빙 찾아다니실 한국인 분들을 위해 리뷰 남깁니다! 로만 극장에 표사고 들어오시면 그 안에 있습니다!로만 극장 표 사고 들어가기 돈 아깝다고 생각하다가 그래도 온 김에 다 봐야지 하고 들어왔더니 박물관도 작지만 두개나 있어서 좋았어요 :)

This small museum is situated within the larger complex of the Roman Amphitheatre. Thankfully you will not have to pay a separate entrance fee to enter it.It is quite a small museum, but it has on show, a well rounded collection of artefacts and scenes of life.There are tableaux showing ancient weavers and the process of weaving; people living in their tents, ladies relaxing in their homes, with furniture of the relevant period, as well as a bride and groom seated in a beautifully decorated carriage on a camel.

Piccolissimo museo situato allinterno del sito archeologico del teatro romano di Amman. Vengono raccolti e presentati principalmente costumi ed oggetti del folklore delle varie culture che hanno abitato la Giordania. Interessante anche se di vecchia concezione e quindi risulta noioso dopo poco.

This is a small little museum showcasing the culture and tradition of Jordan. Its located on the side of the roman theatre and there is no extra fees for the museum too. There are two museums on the 2 sides on the roman theatre. One on the left and other on the right. Its a bit crowned during weekends. The museum includes pottery, clothes, jewellery, guns etc.

This is a small museum with a decent collection of artefacts from history of Jordan. Theres lot of excavated pottery, many old mosaics, statues and so on. If youve been to Madaba, Petra etc, this will be just ho-hum. Entry is free for Jordan Pass and is also included in the Roman Theater ticket.
