/ Amman / Attractions / Martyrs' Memorial
On the summit
of a pine-forested hill and approached by a steep incline, stands
the Martyrs' Memorial. This is a truncated pyramid structure of
white stone covering reinforced concrete. Near the top a band
of basalt can be seen, bearing verses from the Holy Q'ran. The
Memorial is a tribute to Jordan's armed forces and those who gave
their lives in the service of the Kingdom.
