Hammam Al-Sarah

Placed 2 km to the west of Qasr Al-Hallabat. The plan of Hammam Assarah (Assarah Bath Complex) is strikingly similar to Qusayr Amra, though it's masonry has a better finishing and it's courses are more tightly joined. It's plan, like Amra, consists of 3 principal elements: The Audience Hall, The Bath Complex, and The Hydraulic Structures.

The audience-hall roofed by 3 tunnel-vaults resting on the sidewall and two intermediate transverse arches. The north-eastern corner of this hall had a fountain, which received it's water from an elevated tank to the east. The bath proper consists of 3 rooms corresponding to the cold, warm, and hot rooms. This monument suffered severe damage in the 1950s, when the building pilfered for it's stones.
