Darat al Funun

Darat al Funun: contemporary Arab art in a restored heritage house with Byzantine ruins.

Darat al Funun is a leading gallery for contemporary Arab art, set in a restored 1920s mansion complex above Lweibdeh. Ruins of a Byzantine church and Roman-era stones sit in its terraced garden.

The cafe and garden make it a calm creative stop. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan enjoy the contrast with ancient sites, and full package tours to Jordan include it for culturally curious visitors.
