St. George's Church in Madaba





Madaba (مادبا) is near Dead Sea and famous for byzantine-era mosaics. This small city has one of the largest Christian population in Jordan. The must-visit place is the 19th-century Greek Orthodox St. George Church, where on the floor there is the mosaic map of the biblical sites from Egypt to Palestine. Because of it, the church is always full of visitors and believers.
