About
Quick facts: The collection comprises over 80 rare vehicles, many of which were once owned by royalty. Among the cars are Hussein bin Talal's personal Rolls-Royce and Jordan's first car from 1916.
Highlights: In the museum's basement lies a secret garage where King Hussein himself worked on his restoration projects. A fragrant blend of old leather, oil, and metal fills the space, where you can see the marks his tools left on the workbench.
