Vincent Poon :: RACE (12-Sep)

RACE - the only place in the world where Roman army, gladiators and chariot racing performances can be experienced in a genuine Roman hippodrome... I must say you really felt traveled back to the Roman Era and was part of an audience inside the gigantic hippodrome. "Sit where the Romans sat, See what the Romans saw!"

RACE - The Roman Arm and Chariot Experience
There was only 1 show at 11am during the Ramadan period
The newly restored hippodrome, Circus Gerasa, with its original stone seating and carceres (starting gates) provides an ideal arena to re-live the experiences
One of the gates and the seats... not too comfy I must say...

The founder explaining how he had a dream when he was a kid when watching ben-hur and how the dream finally came true here in Jerash!

The show is ready to start...
The horn marked the beginning of the show...
VI Legion Ferrata, "the Ironclad", named for the legion that was stationed in the provinces of Arabia and Judea, arrive at the hippodrome to the beat of martial music.
The Centurion saluted to the audience!
