Madaba is famous of beautiful mosaics. Christians are a significant minority in the city. In my opinion Madaba is much more interesting than Amman. It is enough a day to visit all attractions in the city but I recommend to stay in Madaba two days and enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city. All attractions are located in the old town and you can visit them on foot. Entrance fee to all attractions is included in the Jordan Pass. The entrance to churches is exception. The fee is 1-2 JD per church. There are a lot of souvenir shops in Madaba.
This is a list of attractions in Madaba:

  • St. George’s Church , famous of a map of Middle East. The mosaic map was created in the 6th century.
