Vincent Poon :: Madaba & Mt. Nebo (12-Sep)
 
Madaba is the most important Christian centre in Jordan and also is the home of the famous Madaba Mosaic Map.
 
Mt. Nebo is where Moses is said to have seen the Promised Land, a land where he was forbidden to enter. This is also the place where he died and was buried. 
 
Here I stood on the same spot where Moses and his fellow Israelis were after their 40 years of journey from Egypt thousands of years ago...
