I stumbled upon one of the most beautiful mosaics I've ever seen last November when I was visiting Bulla Regia in Tunisa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulla_Regia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulla_Regia) & it's been preserved in it's original place: https://imgur.com/a/1B5o490 https://imgur.com/a/1B5o490. Well worth a visit if you're ever in the area.
If you like mosaics in general, one of the best collections in the world is the Hatay Archaeology Museum in Antakya, Turkey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatay_Archaeology_Museum https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatay_Archaeology_Museum
