Explore UNESCO-listed Amra Castle (Qasr Amra), famous for its 8th century frescos of hedonistic scenes before continuing to the Kharana Castle (Qasr Al - Kharana) and the atmospheric Al - Azraq Castle (Qasr Al - Azraq), the latter used as military based by T.E Lawrence, known as Lawrence of Arabia during World War I.
