Mount Nebo
overlooks the Jordan Valley, the Dead Sea, the hills of Jerusalem
and affords a magnificent view of Palestine. The Franciscan monks
bought this site in the 1930s and have excavated the ruins of
a sixth century church, which many believe was built over the
burial place of Moses. Sixth century mosaics are on view here.
Mount Nebo
is 25 miles (40km) from Amman.
