A short drive through the beautiful forest area, you will come to Ajloun and visit the ruined castle which was built by Salameen as part of the defense against the crusaders. Nearby you will visit Anjara to see the Shrine of Our Lady of the Mountain. It is said that here the Virgin Mary and Jesus had a rest on their journey from the Holyland. We head on further north to Umm Qais, the ancient Gadara, with its Hellenistic-Roman remains. According to the Bible it was here that Jesus preformed the miracle of sending the demons into a herd of swine that ran into the Sea of Galilee. From Gadara you have a magnificent view over this Sea, the Jordan Valley and the Golan Heights. Return to your hotel in Amman.<o:p></o:p></p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Overnight Amman including breakfast. <o:p></o:p></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span><strong>Day 3: Amman Hotel - Baptism Site - Mt.

This is the place where the baptism of Jesus Christ by John the Baptist took place. We also have a look at Elijah's Hill where Prophet Elijah ascended to heaven. From here we journey to Mt. Nebo, the burial site of Prophet Moses overlooking the Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea. Here you view 4th and 6th century Byzantine churches with wonderful mosaics. Then we visit the mosaic city of Madaba, where the oldest map of the Holy Land exists on the floor of St. George's Church.

We walk through the Siq, an immense crack in the stone, to see at the end Petra's most impressive monument: the Treasury. You walk along the Street of Facades, see the Royal Tombs, Qasr al Bint.
