About the Tour

Hamzet Wasel is an initiative that organizes 7-Jar, an urban discovery challenge around Amman, providing participants with the chance to learn more about the city’s diverse cultural and social history. The Amman Design Week edition of 7-Jar takes participants on an experiential discovery of various design elements in the city, including handicrafts, transportation, food production, art, urban public spaces and street life. 7-Jar will pair teams together to explore the city and learn more about themselves and the diversity of the city, both on foot and using public transportation.
