Jordan Madaba-Mount Nebo- Israeli Border-Tiberias
After visa formalities we visit Madaba, the city of Mosaics”, only 30kms south of Amman. Madaba is repeatedly mentioned in the old Testament as Medeba (Numbers 21:30).This lovely town is home of St. George’s Church which houses the Madaba Map, a 6th century Byzantine Mosaic map showing ancient Palestine, Egypt, Jerusalem and other holy sites. After lunch we continue to Mt.Nebo, (Deut 34:1-7) the most revered site in Jordan. Mt. Nebo is presumed to be the site of Moses’s death and burial place. On top of the mountain is a Franciscan Church with beautiful 4th and 6th century mosaics. Visit the Serpent Monument near the Church. From a platform in front of the church you can take in a breathtaking view like Moses across the Jordan valley and the Dead Sea, Jericho to the rooftops of Jerusalem and Bethlehem. This is also the place from where God showed Moses the promise land from a distance. We then take a 2hrs scenic drive to the Israeli Border called Sheikh Hussain Bridge.
