House of Calligraphy

Jordan


You don’t have to be a linguistic scholar to enjoy the dynamic rhythms of Arabic script. Reinforcing Islamic heritage, the women in this workshop aim to educate visitors about Arab culture, and there's even an opportunity to try your hand at calligraphy as you use a reed to write your name in Arabic.
