Sightseeing Tour of Petra, the ‘Rose-Red’ City |
|
|
Explore the Archaeological Wonders of Petra on this tour
| Overview | |
|
Explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Petra, a city that is arguably the most beautiful in all of the Middle East. A legacy of the Nabataeans, the site of this magnificent city was lost to the world for over 1000 years until its rediscovery in 1812 AD. Carved into rose-coloured stone, Petra is one of Jordan’s national treasures. The ancient city has rock-cut obelisks, temples, sacrificial altars and colonnaded streets. High above, overlooking the Red Mountains is the impressive Ad-Deir Monastery. Within the famous Petra ruins are the Petra Archaeological Museum and the Petra Nabataean Museum, both of which showcase fascinating artefacts unearthed from excavations in the Petra region. Explore the ‘Rose-Red City’ of Jordan, the most impressive ancient city in Middle East.
