The Umayyad Palace (Arabic: القصر الأموي) is a large palatial complex from the Umayyad period, located on the Citadel Hill (Jabal al-Qal'a) of Amman, Jordan. Built during the first half of the 8th century, it is now largely in ruins, with a restored domed entrance chamber known as the "kiosk" or "monumental gateway".[1][2]
