  • Where Herod the 'Great' has his palace up high above the Dead Sea and where Salome danced for the head of John the Baptist.

    32 km from Madaba - about half an hour by car of interesting scenery.

     Interesting litle town, Madaba. Apparently there are several private houses with mosaics still in situ, not open to visitors though.

     So this is where Salome danced for the head of John the Baptist! He's called Jochanaan in Oscar Wilde's play and Richard Strauss's opera. (His best opera, in my opinion -- I've seen it in several different productions.)

     I saw Pope John Paul when I was younger and my wife even touched his hand when he visited the Philippines! I am glad he also went to Jordan...wonderful place! Norman :)
