Itinerary
1
St. George's Church
First, stop at Madaba city, often called the ‘City of Mosaics’. Madaba owes its popularity to a lavish mosaic map of the Holy Land that covers the floor of St George’s Church, and you'll step inside the church to see it.
This relatively modest 19th-century Greek Orthodox church houses a treasure of early Christianity. Imagine the excitement in 1884 when Christian builders came across the remnants of a Byzantine church on their construction site. Among the rubble, having survived willful destruction, fire, and neglect, the flooring they discovered wasn’t just another mosaic but one with extraordinary significance: to this day, it represents the oldest map of Palestine in existence and provides many historical insights into the region.

Admire the views of the Jordan Valley, where you can see the ancient lands of Judah and Jericho.

The museum is currently undertaking a project that aims to create the world's largest mosaic, measuring 30 meters in length and comprising 3.5 million pieces.

The museum also offers a variety of workshops for visitors of all ages.
