Note - most of the museum is not open! Two modern children's displays have some interesting content.. But wait for it to re-open.

Some interesting stuff. Quite a bit of the museum was closed for renovation Not much left. You can see some of the dead sea scrolls.

The main exhibit was closed, but still well worth 5 JOD. 9000 year old statues, Dead Sea scrolls and a bunch of fun facts to make more out of your trip. I recommend going early on so you can appreciate the knowledge while here

The Jordan Museum is located in Ras Al-Ein district of Amman, Jordan. Built in 2014, the museum is the largest museum in Jordan and hosts the country's most important archaeological findings. The museum presents artifacts from various prehistoric archaeological sites in Jordan

Really cool I didn't think Jordan had such cool history for a dinar you can learn so much very nice place to go on a school trip or just alone my only problem is that it closes very early. Other than that go.

The exbition is very explanatory about some of the achievements and constrains/struggles of the country., specially the scarcity of water. Also loved the exbition 1001 inventions! In the "occidental culture " we often "forgot" about the contributions of the arab world this exposition highlights some of the main contributors for the development of nowadays world mentioning the impotant role of women!

It's great for a casual family visit with curious kids. The upper floor hosts the Inventions exhibition and it's perfect for kids as well.

NOT worth visiting. They charge 5 JOD for foreigners to enter the museum. You get to see one small floor of various things. Most of what you see is not historical and does not address the Jordanian history in any way whatsoever. The second floor of the museum is another exhibit that costs 3 more JOD to enter. Ridiculous considering how little you get to see with your first 5. Do NOT bother going here, it is a waste of your time/money.

The museum has potential but there really isn't much to it. There is literally one floor of exhibit space included with the ticket price. I'd guess about 1500-2000 square feet or so.and that's being generous. I essentially paid 5 JOD to see the Dead Sea Scrolls (which were fascinating to see). However, beyond the scrolls, the exhibits are mostly geared toward kids (digital/interactive) and only offer a rudimentary introduction to select aspects of life in Jordan. There is no history section or chronological introduction to the country and/or her people. To add insult to injury, the "Innovations" exhibit on the second floor requires another 3JD to enter. I found this additional price to be absurd, considering the museums's main exhibit was so lack luster. According to online accounts the museum opened in 2014. Unfortunately, I'm not certain where all the money went as, four years post opening, the museum does not present as ready for the public. This visit was one of my more disappointing experiences in Amman. Maybe worthwhile if you have kids but the museum has a long way to go in order to appeal to serious historians/museum buffs.

The Museum has closed its permanent exhibition for renovations leaving only a tiny portion still available to view (including the copper Dead Sea scroll). However, no information is posted about this at the ticket stand and they're continuing to charge the full entry fee. Definitely disappointing for the price they're charging.

You can add your name in the museum and it will appear your name in three languages as you can see and you can print it how cool is that.

This is a wonderful museum. It was a treat to see incredible historical artifacts that originally came from this region (as opposed to seeing similar things in the British Museum, etc.). I spent approximately 2 hours in the museum and read about 70% of the written information, overall. The entrance to the main courtyard is on the west side of the complex. The ticket office is in this courtyard, but it is separate from the main entrance. The entry price is 1 JOD. At the time of writing (2 Aug. 2017), the cafeteria was not open/hadn't been fully built yet - so bring your own snacks, if necessary. Additionally, the second floor of the museum is still under construction. It's an exquisite building and a well-curated museum that is well worth visiting if you are in Amman.

The museum display all the arts and other (Stone, Sculpture, Bones, Pottery,) from the ancient decades who lived in Jordan (Romans,Greeks, Stone Age, Modern Stone Age, Bronze Age). The Museum worth a visit followed a walk trip to the downtown. estimated time spent in the museum (2-3) Hours.

A well presented museum with a good travelling exhibition space. This was about Ibn Bin Haytham when we visited, the father of optical science. The permanent exhibits are well worth a visit too and include the oldest human figurines ever found. Highly recommended

Actually quite impressive! Take a walk through millions of years of human development in the region, with artifacts from civilizations along the way. Good fun.

If you wish to see the traditional culture and dresses that was worn during olden era, this place is a must visit. The way each item is depicted and preserved with lighting effects etc gives the audience a natural feeling and tempt to touch and feel if this is real or craft-work. Amazing place!
