Mango Street (Arabic: شارع مانجو) is a historic street in the Jabal Amman area near downtown Amman, Jordan. Officially named Omar bin al-Khattab Street[1] (Arabic: شارع عمر بن الخطاب), the street derives its nickname from the Mango House, a building on the intersection between Mango and Rainbow Street.
