Jordan, though an Islamic nation, has a vibrant and well-preserved Christian heritage.
The town of Madaba is made up of Muslims and Christians, and among its churches are some superb mosaics, the most famous of which is a 6th century mosaic map depicting the Holy Land.
It is fun to spend a while picking out the various cities and locations, and admiring the little vignettes the artist incorporated into the map.
