Inn of the Good Samaritan
Holy Places
Mosaic museum - On the main highway between Jerusalem and Jericho, Christians over the generations imagined this site as the place where the Jesus Parable of the Good Samaritan took place.
Christians have been worshipping here for some 1500 years, as indicated by the remains of a Byzantine church with a magnificent mosaic floor. The floor has been restored and serves once again as a place of prayer, and also the centerpiece of the newly opened Museum of the Good Samaritan, one of the world's largest mosaic museums.
