Ajloun Castle is one of the greatest examples of Islamic Ayyubid military architecture. The first stage of construction began ca.1184 by General Izzidin Usama, nephew of Salahuddin AL Ayyoubi, who built it on a hill 1100 meters above sea level.The initial structure consisted of a compact nucleus stronghold with four main towers. Subsequent enlargements followed immediately with the addition of two more towers between 1184 and 1193 AD.Between 1193 and 1218, during the times of AL Malek AL Adel, the second stage of construction was completed with enlargements by the castle governor Aybak Bin Abdullah. He added and the seventh tower, which wraps around the southeast corner of the building.

Harana Castle is deep in a position that has been used for farmland, a church in a very long castle structure, the whole surrounding is relatively empty, the castle is not very large, but the history is very old, the church is also an important building.

The castle is the largest surviving military site in Jordan and the second largest preserved Crusade in the Middle East. The castle downstairs was originally a museum, but unfortunately the museum was closed when I went there. It is said that in the renovation, the museum in Jordan is closed everywhere on this road. There are few open doors, even if the door is opened, the quality is generally the same. This castle belongs to a popular attraction, I encountered two waves of domestic tour groups at that time. There are also various drags at the entrance of the castle. One was accidentally dragged along the way. He listened to his nagging and had to give a tip to send it away. At last, my ears were quiet. The location of the castle determines this is a great place to watch the sunset.

Ruins that are nice to stop at when going from Amman to Petra. Bit if you’re in a rush, it’s okay to skip it.

Located behind the Aqaba Seafront Plaza in Jordan, it is a fortress built by the Sultan in 1587 and has a history of more than 400 years. The castle is baptized for years, some dilapidated; the incomplete royal emblem speaks of the former glory... Next to the castle is the emir Sharif Said Hussein bin Ali, a participant in the Battle of Aqaba during World War I (1917) (Arabic: حسین بن علی) Monument.
