Jaramana ( _ar. جرمانا) is a city in the Rif Dimashq Governorate in southern Syria.Its location, 10 Kilometers southeast of Damascus, makes it a bustling town of the Syrian capital, with Christian and Druze majority.

There is also a Palestinian refugee camp near the town bearing its same name. Jaramana is also a favorite destination for Iraqi Assyrians fleeing their unstable country as well.In October 2006, the Assyrian community in Jaramana finally received a priest from Mosul, Iraq. The priest, Arkan Hana Hakim, claims there are now 2000 Assyrian Iraqis in Jaramana alone.
