Amman

We call it the White City.
It is said
whiteness signifies honesty and dependability, an x-ray of beauty,
they also say whiteness; the wealth of rich and poor - unites all classes.
whiteness it is "the eye of truth."
This makes me wonder, is it because other countries have natural sceneries - color diversity, made the movement of modern architecture to start.
Amman on the other hand, is an empty city - soulless
I think this modern architecture Can't apply if there is no contrast to this wonderful "Truth".
What makes Amman give this feeling?
is it the people?the architecture they manifest?is it the history?
other countries have the whiteness but you never feel the same way?again is it the natural colors that give this painting a richer sight?
maybe this is the beauty of the desert?
