Along Rainbow Street and the surrounding Jabal Amman, boutiques, design shops and craft stores sell contemporary Jordanian fashion, jewellery, artwork and homeware, often by local designers. Interspersed with cafes and galleries, the area is the place to find modern and stylish souvenirs away from the traditional souks. Browsing these independent shops offers a glimpse of Ammans creative side and a chance to buy distinctive, locally designed goods in a pleasant setting.
