Just got back from Bayt ras / Capitolias 10 minutes drive from Irbid , a roman castle which was discovered in early 2001 and the excavation of this historical place is still a long way to go. There we stood in the ruins of the forum which is situated in the middle of the Bayt Ras Village with residential houses all around and nobody would ever think that the roman castle was once under their houses…..so amazing….
Next to the castle stood a mosque which is believed to be the transit venue of Nabi Khidir (pbuh) while he was on his way to Al Quds. However we couldn’t get into the shrine since it only opens during prayer times….
We were supposed to go to Buqa’awiyya ( terletaknya pokok rasulullah ) yesterday but had to postpone it to next week since Zaid was still in Petra ( got some business to do ) . We went to Zarqa’ instead , just to experience the life of people in Zarqa’ during weekend( a district 30km from Amman ).
The Shrine of Nabi Khidir alaihisalam.
Rows of bundle stalls and shops welcomed us in Zarqa’….. it’s a wonderful experience to see a lot of bundle stuff sold and many arabs were seen grabbing and buying those used items since they were sold at extremely low prices…. A shirt cost only 10/20/50cents…. shoes sold at 1JD – 6JD / pair.
Being at the bundle market reminds me of our night market backhome….. I miss the keropok lekor / apam balik rangup / cendol /ABC..…nyumm, nyumm…

bersejarah betul negri Jordan ni eh Rina.Agak sebulan holiday pun tak habis nak rounding.
Pasar lambak tu bagus juga kan?dapat membeli dgn murah pada yg miskin.
huh kuih apa tu yg bulat2?
teringin sangat nak ke jordan, satu hari nanti akan ku usahakan jua..
zarqa' yang padat dengan memori, bundle yang paling "kaw" dalam Jordan. pertama kali dapat kasut Airwalk di Zarqa' bawa pulang ke Mafraq hampir kecoh satu kampung. stor bundle abu samagah habis kena bongkar. tidur di zarqa' pun sanggup kerana nak habiskan satu malam membuka guni kasut. zarqa' punyai bundle yang paling "kaw" dalam Jordan. kaki bundle yang terhormat perlu merasai pengalaman di zarqa' dahulu sebelum "kawah" di amman. dari sikkah ke mujamma' gharbi hingga ke belakang di hayyu ma'sum sampailah ke deretan kedai sebaris rumah abu mus'ab az-zarqawi, memang zarqa' punyai bundle paling "kaw" dalam dunia ini. tempat membundle lagi dikenang inikan pula mahkamah zarqa' tempat melafaz ikrar perkahwinan. zarqa' memang cool.
murahnya barang bundle kat sana, kat sini brg bundle pun tak dpata dlm sen sen
wow..nampak best ye..mcm kat rantau panjang kelantan..murahnye barang..best2..
kak elle...... bundle stalls kat sini semua lapisan masyarakat pergi, original items at low prices.. kuih tu tak tau nama apa tapi macam kuih cakoi tapi lepas digoreng , dicelup dalam air gula (yang dalam dulang tu air gula ) ..terlalu manis memang takleh nak habiskan walaupun satu...
