For the spiritually inclined, there are many places to see in Jordan. These hallowed lands have a deep religious past. Mount Nebo is the place from where Moses witnessed the Promised Land. It is also his final resting place, with a commemorative site to pay your respects as well as a magnificent sight of the valley below. In the small town of Madaba, you’ll get to see a gorgeous mosaic map of the Middle East tracing as far back as the 6th century, in the Byzantine Church of St. George. Along the famed King’s Highway, Shobak and Karak castles are a regular tourist pit stop – and your chance to see Crusader era bastions. There’s also Bethany Beyond Jordan – the actual home of John the Baptist and original site of Jesus’ baptism!
