Itinerary

Petra is a rose colored city residing in the heart of the desert.  As the sun sets, the mountains change to orange, red, and purple.  Walking through the Siq, is an experience in itself, it is a natural crack in the mountain, that leaves a way to pass through to get to the Treasury, and inside Petra.  The Nabateans were industrious workers, as Petra was built in the first century, the city grew to about 20,000 people.  The Nabateans prospered by selling water that they gathered from building water cisterns.  Over the years they built temples, a Roman theater, statues, and facades, bath houses, and much more.  Today there are hundreds of objects to view in Petra.
