- St. George’s Church - The Madaba Map, also referred to as the Madaba Mosaic Map, is a part of a floor mosaic in the early Byzantine church of Saint George located in Madaba, Jordan. This map illustrates a section of the Middle East and holds the distinction of being the oldest surviving original cartographic representation of the Holy Land, with a particular focus on Jerusalem.
- Mount Nebo - The peak of Siyagha, standing 700 meters above the Jordan Valley and overlooking the northeastern part of the Dead Sea, is believed to be Mount Nebo. This is the site where Moses, a prophet revered in the three monotheistic religions, was shown the Promised Land and where he passed away.
Today, Mount Nebo serves as an active memorial, a Franciscan monastery, and an archaeological site that draws visitors from around the globe. It is renowned not only for its historical and religious importance but also for the exceptional artistic value of the architectural remains and Byzantine mosaics it preserves and showcases.
- The Baptism Site Of Jesus Christ - Located on the eastern bank of the River Jordan, nine kilometers north of the Dead Sea, this archaeological site comprises two distinct areas: Tell Al-Kharrar, also known as Jabal Mar-Elias (Elijah’s Hill), and the area of the churches of Saint John the Baptist near the river. Nestled in a pristine natural setting, the site is believed to be where Jesus of Nazareth was baptized by John the Baptist. It features Roman and Byzantine remains, including churches, chapels, a monastery, caves used by hermits, and pools where baptisms were conducted, all testifying to the site’s religious significance. It is a Christian pilgrimage destination.
