Petra, Jordan

A few pictures from Petra--an ancient Nabataean city built between the 3rd century BC and the 1st century AD. Petra is Jordan's most popular tourist attraction so it's best to visit the site as early in the morning as possible.

The Treasury
The most famous structure in Petra.
It's name, Khasneh el-Faroun (Treasury of the Pharaoh), comes from Bedouin folklore.

The Monastery
The monastery is totally worth the 900 step it takes to get to it!
