Aqaba Holiday - Part 2

On the third day, we drove a hundred and fifty kilometres through the snowy and sandy mountains to reach Petra.Petra is a city of awe that some describe as the eighth wonder of the world. Carved into the red rock mountains, it consists of many different chambers that serve as a library, a monastery, homes… It also consists of a bloody long, tiring walk from the downhill entrance that leads into a 3 kilometre long valley to the top of the peak where you’ll find the monastery.

Along the way, the guides employ donkeys and horses to take those willing to pay through the city.

If you ever go to Jordan, visiting Petra is a must.
