Gerasa and Gadara were ancient cities in the region of Decapolis, located in the eastern part of the Roman Empire. Gerasa, also known as Jerash (in modern-day Jordan), was a thriving city with well-preserved Roman architecture, including colonnaded streets, temples, and theaters. Gadara, present-day Umm Qais (also in modern-day Jordan), was known for its Hellenistic and Roman heritage, with impressive ruins that include a theater, mausoleum, and a basilica.
Both cities were significant centers of culture, trade, and learning during their time, and they continue to attract tourists and historians due to their rich history and archaeological remains.
