<p>You haven&rsquo;t lived until you and your friends have eaten seventeen different colors of rice, meat, and sauces while sitting on the floor at the <em>Bab al-Yemen</em> restaurant in Amman.

&lt;/figcaption&gt;
&lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The shrine, built nearly 1,000 years ago, stands atop a hotly contested complex called the &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Mount&#34;&gt;Temple Mount&lt;/a&gt; (&amp;ldquo;Noble Sanctuary&amp;rdquo; in Arabic) that dates back to the Canaanites several thousand years agolike I said, an impressive resume!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a secular person it&amp;rsquo;s all a bit too heavy for my taste, but there&amp;rsquo;s no doubt that the complex is stunningly beautiful. Visitation of the Temple Mount is open to the non-Muslim public from 7:30 to 11:00 AM from the access bridge at the Western Wall in the Jewish Quarter of the old city.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;There&amp;rsquo;s an old Syrian man who does this fantastic hand painting on wood panels in Amman. A few flats in our building have them installed on the ceiling, but this one takes the cake. I&amp;rsquo;m not sure if it&amp;rsquo;s typical for the region or notthe man was referencing pictures from a Russian art bookbut they are exquisite.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I can&amp;rsquo;t even read Arabic but I&amp;rsquo;m pretty sure that billboard is telling people to &lt;em&gt;put their fucking phones down while driving&lt;/em&gt;. It&amp;rsquo;s like an epidemic here. I&amp;rsquo;ve never seen people look less at the road while driving than here in Amman.&lt;/p&gt;

<h4>Easily one of the most unique buildings in Amman</h4>

<p>Even if the number number of mosques in Amman <em>didn&rsquo;t</em> outnumber churches by a factor of ten, the Saint Thaddeus Armenian Apostolic church would still stand out. It caught my eye once a few weeks ago and then I started seeing it every time I glanced at Jabal Al-Ashrafieh. After weeks of squinting and asking myself &ldquo;<em>Is that an Armenian church?</em>&rdquo; I finally went on an epic scavenger hunt and found it.</p>

<h4>Easily one of the most unique buildings in Amman</h4>

<p>Even if the number number of mosques in Amman <em>didn&rsquo;t</em> outnumber churches by a factor of ten, the Saint Thaddeus Armenian Apostolic church would still stand out. It caught my eye once a few weeks ago and then I started seeing it every time I glanced at Jabal Al-Ashrafieh. After weeks of squinting and asking myself &ldquo;<em>Is that an Armenian church?</em>&rdquo; I finally went on an epic scavenger hunt and found it.</p>

<h4>Billboard in Amman cautions against using your phone while driving</h4>
</figcaption>
</figure>
<p>I can&rsquo;t even read Arabic but I&rsquo;m pretty sure that billboard is telling people to <em>put their fucking phones down while driving</em>. It&rsquo;s like an epidemic here. I&rsquo;ve never seen people look less at the road while driving than here in Amman.</p>
