Madaba &Mt. Nebo
This city of mosaic is the Madaba of the Bible. It lies south from the capital Amman along the 5000 - year - old King's highway. Madaba's chief attraction is its ancient church holding the wonderfully vivid, sixth century Byzantine mosaic map showing Jerusalem and other holy sites made with two million pieces of colored stone. Close by is Mount Nebo the memorial of Moses . |
