| PETRA
One of the great natural and man-made wonders of the world (2,500+ years old), the rose-red stone-carved Nabataean city of Petra is Jordan's most popular attraction.
A powerful symbol of ingenious ancient architecture encased in a rugged rose-hued landscape - and laced with a colorful traffic of tourists, guides, Bedouin vendors, horse-drawn carriages, donkeys, camels, and horses - surreal Petra represents one of those great "WOW" moments for visitors who gladly linger on for hours, sometimes days, marveling at this very special place.
Walk the Siq, marvel at the Treasury, Monastery, and Royal Tombs, and take the candlelit "Petra at Night" tour, and you'll have completed an unforgettable travel adventure.
