Madaba is a small town in central Jordan located south of the capital Amman on the King's Highway, some 10 km from Hesban.
A town with a long history, Madaba is best known as the location of the "Madaba Map", a 6th-century mosaic depiction of Jerusalem and many parts of the Holy Land.
Madaba is approximately 10% Christian (Catholics and Greek Orthodox). Much of the traveller and pilgrim infrastructure is run by the Franciscans however.
