Many artifacts in the Middle East were destroyed in the war, and this beautiful mosaic map was preserved by the earthquake, although only a quarter of the area, but did not affect the identification. The map clearly shows the names of the cities in the Bible at the time. The mosaic of the year is very different from the current. The mosaic of the past used natural stones, even the color of the stone is the original stone. This mosaic process of cutting natural stones into small pieces and then splicing together is a very complicated and fine process. There is also a small exhibition room on the side of the church, which displays the stories of the mosaic maps unearthed at the time. If you encounter large groups, there are local staff to explain for free.

In 1991, the Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities of Jordan, the American Center of Oriental Research (ACOR), and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) initiated a project to create an archaeological park in the heart of Madaba. The park includes a well-preserved stretch of a late Roman street and buildings dating from the Roman, Byzantine, and early Islamic periods and the early 20th century. The goals of the park project were to explore the history of Madaba, to protect its archaeological heritage from destruction, and to revitalize downtown Madaba.The need to preserve Madaba’s rich heritage became acute during the building boom of the 1970s and 1980s. The value of having an archaeological park in the city center had been shown by the extensive excavations of Michele Piccirillo, who at that time was preparing a major ACOR publication, The Mosaics of Jordan (1993). For the Madaba Archaeological Park Project, ACOR played a pivotal role in excavating, conserving, and creating shelters over multiple archaeological sites, in order to preserve them and make them accessible to visitors.

Not too far from the Temple of Hercules is the Roman Amphitheater and one of the best examples of Roman theater that I have ever seen!

Rainbow Street is a neighborhood, there are many foreign tourists living and playing, is also a good place to taste local food and life fun, many taverns and hotels are opened by foreigners, is a more lively and safe area.

The Jordanian Museum is a national museum, the history of the country is very early, you can see many traces and cultural relics of the ancient Roman period, archaeological excavations continue to be carried out, the museum visit is still very valuable.

Your Tour Manager will pick you up from your Hotel in Amman to start your full City Tour in Amman, Jordan. Start your Amman City sightseeing with a visit to the King Abdulla Mosque which was completed in 1989 as a memorial by the late King Hussein to his grandfather. The unmistakable blue-domed Mosque can house up to 7000 worshippers inside. This is the only Mosque in Amman that openly welcomes non-Muslim visitors. Then pay a visit to the Amman Citadel located 132 meters above the level of the City Centre. South of the castle we can still see the ruins of Hercules temple. Also there is Umayyad palace. The adventure continues then with exploring the Roman Amphitheater which is considered one of the largest in the Middle East. Its construction dates back to the beginning of the second Century AD. Then take a walk in Amman’s downtown markets and City center before heading to the Archaeological Museum and Darat al Fnoun which aims to provide a platform for the visual arts from the Arab World. Back to your Hotel in Amman.Duration is about 8 Hours.
