    I mean c’mon. The treasury lives up to its reputation. I also recommend Petra by night.

    To avoid the crowd in order to truly enjoy the place, I would recommend to enter the site when it opens at 7am. If you are not afraid of climbing then I would recommend taking a local guide to help you climb up the mountain across AL-Khazneh to view it up from the top and take nice unique pictures. The other option is to go pass behind it to take the long stairs, which will take you up to see the whole valley and place of sacrifice. You may negotiate price with the local Bedouin to help you climb otherwise don't take the risk. A day trip is sufficient to see most of the places if you are short on time. It is a lot of walk if you are planning to spend few days. You may rent a car if coming from Amman to drive yourself to Petra, which will save you time and give you flexibility of add stopovers. There are a lot of historical places along the route. Beware, driving is not easy in mountain area, see the video for info.

    One of the most impressive parts of the Stone City of Petra and serving as a basic landmark. It is just at the end of the Siq and about 2 and a half kilometers from the Visitors centre of Petra. The entrance inside is not allowed. A lot of police is there and of course, hundreds of tourists taking pictures from all over the world - as usually most are the Russians, the Chinese and the Japanese

    One of the world wonders, should be visited at least one of the life time. Petra originally known to its inhabitants as Raqmu or Raqēmō, is a historic and archaeological city in southern Jordan. It is adjacent to the mountain of Jabal Al-Madbah, in a basin surrounded by mountains forming the eastern flank of the Arabah valley running from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. The area around Petra has been inhabited from as early as 7000 BC, and the Nabataeans might have settled in what would become the capital city of their kingdom as early as the 4th century BC. Archaeological work has only discovered evidence of Nabataean presence dating back to the second century BC, by which time Petra had become their capital. The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who invested in Petra's proximity to the incense trade routes by establishing it as a major regional trading hub.

    Best view at night, also been here during daytime.

  • 5/5 Filip U. 1 year ago on Google
    Petra was breathtaking! Seeing it on pictures is already amazing, but seeing it in person is a whole other experience!

  • 5/5 Max L. 11 months ago on Google
    Always such a beautiful experience when you walk around the corner and see the treasury. However, there are just so many people posing that the feeling soon dissipates.
