Petra is a city that was left to us over 2000 years ago by the Nabateans.  When entering Petra through the Siq, it will be clear to you, as to why this is one of the seven wonders of the world.  The first look at the Treasury is like nothing else that has been seen.  The workmanship that went into building and carving the Treasury is astounding. There is plenty to tour here including temples, crypts, tombs, facades, and the amphitheater.

Wadi Rum is located in the middle of the desert.  The mountains are full of graffiti that was done thousands of years ago.  There are stone formations that pop out of the desert sand.  Tour Wadi Rum to see how the Bedouins live.
