    Nice work, I think we should have more campaigns and photos like these, since many tourists that I have met get shocked when they see all those extravagant cars and houses of Amman, and they always say "You are richer than us" well get out of West of Amman and see the reality.
  • In many western cities, you see exhibits on the streets that have a common theme like that. It would be nice to have a similar exhibit say on "Shari3 El thaqafa".
