DAY 1/ Meeting at the border - Madaba - Umm ar-Rasrass - Amman

​

Meeting at the border by a representative of the company, Excursion to Madaba - the city of mosaics, where in the church of St. George you can see a mosaic map of the Holy Land. In the center of the map is a schematic representation of Jerusalem, on which the Church of the Holy Sepulcher and numerous city gates stand out. A little to the side you can see the Nile Delta. The map is striking in its accuracy and abundance of details, confirming both the facts described in the Bible and the facts assumed by archaeologists from the history of the ancient world. Next, visit the archaeological complex of Um Rassas, containing the ruins of the Roman, Byzantine and early Muslim civilizations. The complex was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2004. Transfer to Amman, hotel accommodation and dinner.

It is believed that the King of Judea Herod I the Great bathed in these waters, that he often visited the healing springs of Main and even built a palace in the neighboring village of Mukavir.
