Ajloun (Qalat Al Rabadh)
Perched atop a solitary mountain in the cool hills of Ajloun, 14 miles west of Jerash, is Qalat Al Rabad, a 12th century Arab Castle built in defense against the crusaders. The massive Structure affords a 360-degree view for as far as the eye can see. Surrounded by a moat, the castle is in a fairly good state of Repair and its many rooms, which cling to the mountain top, are Invitingly mysterious.
