The ancient
city of Petra is one of Jordan's national treasures and by far its best
known tourist attraction. Located about one and half hours north of
Aqaba, Petra is the legacy of the Nabataens, an industrious Arab people
who settled in southern Jordan more than 2000 years ago. Admired then
for its refined culture, massive architecture and ingenious complex of
dams and water channels, Petra is now a UNESCO world heritage site that
enchants visitors from all corners of the globe.
Much of Petra's appeal comes from its spectacular setting deep inside a
narrow desert gorge. The site is accessed by walking through a kilometer
long chasm (or siq), the walls of which soar 200 meters upwards. Petra's
most famous monument, the Treasury, appears dramatically at the end of
the siq.
Used in the final sequence of the film ""Indiana Jones and the Last
Crusade"", the towering facade of the Treasury is only one of myriad
archaeological wonders to be explored at Petra. Various walks and climbs
reveal literally hundreds of buildings, tombs, baths, funerary halls,
temples, arched gateways, colonnaded streets and haunting rock drawings
- as well as a 3000 seat open air amphitheatre circa, a gigantic first
century Monastery and a modern archeological museum, all of which can be
explored at leisure.
