The museum is located in Karlshamn's cultural quarter. Here you will find the city museum, the old punsch factory, the tobacco factory, the silversmith's workshop, the printing factory, the art gallery, and the famous songwriter for children Alice Tegner's special room. Skottbergska Gården is also in the cultural quarter. It is one of Sweden’s best-preserved trading houses with roots from the late 18th century, original adornments and an apartment furnished in the style of that period.

The Duke’s Diwan is a time capsule of early 20th-century Amman, hidden in plain sight on the busy King Faisal Street. Built in 1924 as the city’s first post office, this Ottoman-era stone house later became the Haifa Hotel before heritage activist Mamdouh Bisharat ("The Duke of Mukheibeh") rescued it from demolition in 2001. Today, its creaking wooden floors lead through rooms frozen in Jordan’s past, complete with antique typewriters, sepia photos of camel caravans on dusty roads, and a balcony overlooking downtown’s metamorphosis. More than a museum, it’s a living diwan (gathering space): poets hold readings at the carved oak table, while artists riff under the Arabian archways. Admission is free, and the duke himself sometimes holds court, spinning tales of old Amman over cardamom coffee. Don’t miss the upstairs gallery, where rotating exhibits spotlight Jordan’s underground creatives.

Firdos Square may seem like an ordinary roundabout today, featuring a fountain and waving Iraqi flags, but it holds deep historical significance. On April 9th, 2003, the statue of Saddam Hussein was toppled by US forces right here, an event that marked the end of his regime and a turning point in Iraq’s modern history. While there’s no physical trace of the original monument, standing in this square places you where history unfolded. Capture your own photo here and contrast it with the iconic news images that shocked the world back in the day.
