The Church of the Apostles, south of Madaba's centre, guards a 6th-century mosaic masterpiece — the personification of the sea surrounded by fishermen, birds and beasts, signed by its craftsman Salathios.
It is among Jordan's finest Byzantine floors. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan combine it with the Archaeological Park, and full package tours to Jordan include the mosaics.
