Jerash is the site of the ruins of the Greco-Roman city of Gerasa, also referred to as Antioch on the Golden River. The Arch of Hadrian in Jerash is an 11-metre high triple-arched gateway erected to honor the visit of Roman Emperor Hadrian to the city (then called Gerasa) in the winter of 129ââ¬â130. The Arch originally stood to almost 22 m and probably had wooden doors. |
