Hadrian's Gate / Arch of Triumph
Built to celebrate the visit of Roman's Emperor Hadrian in 129AD
Located about 50km to the north from the capital city of Jordan, Amman, Jerash is known for the ruins of the Greco-Roman city of Gerasa, which nowadays represents the most complete and best preserved Roman city in the whole world outside Rome. One of the "Decapolis", Jerash is the second-most popular tourist attraction in Jordan, right after Petra.
The Roman Army is getting ready for a showdown at the Hippodrome. This twice-daily showdown is called RACE, an acronym for the "Roman Army and Chariot Experience".
