点评:Quseir Amra is one of my favorite desert castles, even though technically was not a Castle but a hunting lodge. This is my third visit in over 35 years. Not much has changed except for the amenities nice restroom and walkways that allow you to walk around Quseir Amra from afar to appreciate its design and footprint. Back in the day it had simple fence with barbed wire, no bathroom and a caretaker that appeared to pop out of nowhere:) . This is one of the 3 castles most visit on a day trip from Amman.Built for an Umayyad Caliph as more of a retreat, it has beautiful artwork and murals. Has a Turkish bath in it. It is the one castle you should take your time looking at the artwork as it gives you a good taste in how lush the area looked before the Ottomans deforested the region. We had a tour guide which helped.
翻译:库塞尔·阿姆拉是我最喜欢的沙漠城堡之一,虽说严格来说它并不算城堡,而是一座狩猎行宫。这是35年来我的第三次到访。除了增设了设施齐全的洗手间以及便于游客从远处欣赏其建筑设计与布局的步行道之外,其他地方几乎没什么变化。以前这里只有带刺铁丝网的简易围栏,没有卫生间,甚至连个看管人也没有——他似乎总是莫名其妙地从哪里冒出来似的 :)。这是从安曼出发的一日游中最值得参观的三座城堡之一。这座城堡是为伍麦叶王朝的哈里发建造的,主要用作度假胜地,内部有精美的艺术品和壁画。城堡里还有一个土耳其浴池。在这里,您应该花些时间细细欣赏那些艺术品,它们能让您切实感受到在奥斯曼帝国砍伐森林之前,这一地区曾是多么繁茂美丽。当时我们有导游陪同,帮了大忙。
