Everyone was talking about Rainbow Street and how we could not miss it, so we checked it out. It was nice to walk around and grab some shawarma, but otherwise, I did not understand what the hype was about. There were a lot of shops selling souvenirs and cafes and restaurants that catered to tourists, but that is about it. Definitely not an authentic experience and the shopping was not what I was hoping, but it was an easy area to walk around and get some quick, inexpensive food.

We had heard that we should visit Rainbow Street while in Amman. While there are a few interesting parts, they are in a relatively small area. A few side streets with colourful umbrellas or bandanas hung from the top of lampposts. A few quirky and interesting looking bars. A few shops mostly selling tourist souvenirs. A few bits of street art. But, not enough to fill a day out. So, worth a quick visit but dont expect to much to see.

Our visit to Rainbow Street, a week before Ramadan, didn't quite match the vibrant atmosphere depicted in online images. Situated high on the hill, reaching there on foot can be challenging, suggesting a taxi might be a more convenient option. While the street hosts various establishments, it seemed dominated by overpriced restaurants, cafes, and stores. However, we discovered a hidden gem – a delightful Palestinian souvenir store that stood out in the midst of the commercial scene.

Totally peaceful and safe despite neighbourly current situation. People are friendly, much to do ( Dead Sea scrolls, Royal car museum ) and the food is fab. Rainbow Street is great shopping and restaurants

Overrated in my opinion, but nice enough, I guess. Lots of restaurants, cafes, trendy sort of places with umbrella covered walkways, lampshaded streetlights, Solidarity grafitti, painted steps. There are burger bars, restaurants in old buses (I got a much needed slush!) and some overpriced souvenir shops. I expected much MORE given the hype about how cool it is. It is modern though, so I guess that is the attraction. I got a taxi up and walked back down (easier to explore anywhere in Amman that way, it is very hilly). Nice views of the citadel on the way down.

A wonderful street in Amman, Jordan. Many shops, restaurants, cafes and places of interest like Jara Market and others. This street will be very viral with pedestrians after sunset. Had a short visit in the morning and dine in in one of the restaurants there.
