Visit the ruins of a residential area at the junction of Decumanus and Cardo maximus, on the left
At the crossroads of the Decumanus and the Cardo maxiumus, on the left, you will notice an area of ruins corresponding to a residential area. These are Roman administrative buildings that were rehabilitated into residential houses during the Umayyad period, from 600 onwards. Their influence in Gerasa was only minor and they built only one mosque. To the west of the city, the 'House of the Blue' was a splendid house from the Byzantine-Umayyad period, the visible remains of which date mainly from the Arab period.
