Jabal Al Zohor is an older neighbourhood set on hills in the middle of Amman. Main roads such as Prince Hassan Street and Musab bin Omair Street run along its edges, and it borders Al Ashrafeyeh and Al-Yarmouk. Its central position keeps hospitals, schools, universities and shopping within reach, and public transport lines connect it with the rest of the city.
The area is described as quiet and safe, with residents from many different backgrounds, a mild climate and views over Amman. Landmarks include Al Salem Mosque and Jabal Al Zohor park, along with other public gardens and some historic buildings. Restaurants and cafés serve a range of cuisines.
Property prices are relatively moderate compared with some other parts of Amman, and the homes on offer cover a range of budgets.
Nearby services include Al Bashir Hospital, the Jordan Red Crescent Hospital, Al Maqased Hospital and Al Quds Hospital, as well as many schools, such as Princess Salma School and Zaid bin Shaker School, and numerous mosques.
It suits families looking for a calm home in a central location at more accessible prices.
