Pella (Tabaqat Fahl)

Pella: a Decapolis city in the Jordan Valley with ruins from Bronze Age to Byzantine.

Pella, the ancient Tabaqat Fahl, lies in the lush foothills of the Jordan Valley, with a long mound, a Roman theatre, Byzantine churches and an Ottoman village all in one green site.

It is wonderfully quiet compared to Jerash. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan combine it with Umm Qais, and full package tours to Jordan include it on the northern loop.
