Pictures: The Royal Automobile Museum chronicles an important part of Jordan's history

ArabiaWeather.com - Rami Muhammad - The Royal Automobile Museum is located in Al-Hussein Gardens, Medical City Street, and contains all the cars of King Hussein bin Talal over the long years.

The museum chronicles an important part of Jordan's political history, and its exhibits reflect the history of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan through cars, starting from the history of the reign of King Abdullah I bin Al-Hussein until the reign of King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein.

Recently, it contains many cars and bicycles that are not related to the kings of Jordan, such as a bicycle from the nineteenth century, the "Bugatti" and other rare cars.

The history of cars began with King Abdullah I, who used them to carry out his daily work, and his regular visits to Jerusalem and the Arab tribes in the Badia. The history of cars also sheds light on the life of King Hussein bin Talal, while highlighting aspects of his biography.

Among the museum's most important holdings: a Lincoln Capri convertible, model 1952, which King Hussein bin Talal used during his studies in England, and it was also used at his coronation ceremony in May 1953.
