Why the world goes

A Nabataean city carved into sandstone, a wonder of the world, and still only three hours from Amman by road; the Monastery climb above it is the quieter half.

What to know

Two-day passes are the better value. Summer afternoons pass 40°C; go in spring or autumn and start at opening time.

Famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit systems, Petra is also called the "Rose City" because of the colour of the sandstone from which it is carved. The city is one of the New 7 Wonders of the World and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
