Jordan / Madaba / The City

Thirty kilometers south of Amman on the King's Highway is the city of Madaba, which has some of the finest mosaics of the ancient Orient, including a 6th century map of Jerusalem and the Holy Land.

An irresistible combination of history and art, Madaba was first mentioned in the Bible as Medeba and is one of Jordan's main provincial cities today.
