Wadi Al-Seer
Area in Amman Governorate, Jordan / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wadi Al-Seer or Wadi as-Seer (Arabic: وادي السير, meaning "Valley of the Orchards") is a valley (wadi) west of Amman, which gave its name to one of the twenty-two districts of the Greater Amman Municipality in Jordan. It is said to have taken its name from a prehistoric queen that ruled the area, Queen Seer.[dubious – discuss] The district consists of ten neighborhoods, some of which are residential, others commercial or mixed.[2][3]
