Tombs, temples and theatres carved out completely in rocks, great views, secluded places, Petra has it all. Certainly the must-see place in Jordan, involving some good walks unless you want to ride a donkey.
From this magnificent place, you can turn right, walk past more facades, a theatre, and tombs on the higher rocks. An easy climb takes you up the hill to the high place of sacrifice or Al Madbah, with free views all over the area. It is easy to understand why this place is called Petra, which comes from rock in Greek. Going down to the valley brings you to the city centre, with remains of temples, market, nymphaeum, palaces and a church. Here, it is impossible to hide from the sun as it is in the open plains of Petra.
