Petra Ancient City: The Rose City Lost in Time🌹
Today, I will take you to one of the lesser-known travel destinations of lost civilizations in the world—Petra Ancient City in Jordan. All the buildings in this ancient city were carved out of rose-colored rocks, hence it is also known as the 'Rose City'🌹.
The history of Petra Ancient City can be traced back to around 400 BC, when the Nabateans established a prosperous city here. In the 1st century BC, the Romans occupied Petra, and used it as an important commercial center and military fortress. During the Roman rule, Petra reached its peak, with many grand buildings such as temples, theaters, bathhouses, and tombs being built in the city.
However, the prosperity of Petra did not last long. In the 7th century AD, Petra was conquered by the Arabs and gradually declined. In the following centuries, Petra was abandoned, the city was buried by sand and dust, and disappeared from people's sight. It wasn't until 1812 that a Swiss explorer rediscovered Petra Ancient City, and this lost city was known to people again.
There are also many legends about Petra Ancient City. It is said that the city was established by a man named 'Ali Baba', who hid a lot of treasures💎 here. In addition, there is a legend that Petra is the place where Moses turned stones into gold after leaving Egypt.
Today, Petra Ancient City has become a world-famous tourist attraction, attracting a large number of tourists every year to explore this city lost in time. If you also want to experience the charm of Petra Ancient City, why not take a journey through time
Beautiful place! Probably best to visit during the winter so you could avoid the summer heat!
There is a reason that it is a wonder of the world. Make sure to give yourself a whole day to see everything though.
Petra is full of surprises. Make sure you visit The Monastery and the Treasury. Both are amazing!
The ancient city of Petra is really a place worth visiting. The weather there was very hot. I actually carried six bottles of water alone and brought my partner's water. Fortunately, I usually like to hike there and really challenge it. We walked the whole journey without sitting on their camels. The whole 20 kilometers back and forth, the key is that the temple highest in Tepera is really very physical and needs to be climbed up, only to climb up to see the temple. Warm reminder there are many children holding camels, asking you if you want to do their quotations are false, as long as you sit on it, he will say you buy a little grass for the camel, in fact, it is to ask you to add more money, if you are not bad money, then sit on their camels. I highly recommend everyone to go there and play.
The treasury is amazing, but there is way more than just that to do. Plan to spend a whole day there. If you’re in good shape, try walking up the mountains to the monetary as well.#petra #visitpetra #awesomepic #mytripvlog
