Al-Wakalat Street is located just off the 7th circle. It is Amman's only pedestrian street and I love it! It is pronounced 'walk a lot' which isn't exactly appropriate as you can only walk for about 10 minutes, but it is still a nice play on words.
I have to update this post (December 2013). This street is no longer a pedestrian street and we are so upset about it. Now cars drive through and it is busy. It is such a shame!
It is home to some of my favourite Western clothes shops such as Monsoon, Mango, GAP and Zara. There are also some sportswear shops and a few coffee shops. Coffee Republic is my favourite because they are really friendly and they have a wash room. I always need a bathroom for some reason when I visit this street!

| This is a nice outdoor eating/shisha place. However, it is frightfully expensive. We just wanted a mint and lemonade drink and it cost us $12! |
