Friends who have seen the film "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" can imagine that Dr. Indiana Jones and a group of explorers rode horses through the Sik Shan Gorge, marveling at the wonders of nature, and then gradually, gradually, A red red ancient city...
Hongmei Ancient City-Petra, in fact, you really want to use words to describe the kind of shock you saw at first sight, especially if you have been walking through the meandering snake road. Its like a shuttle in the time tunnel from now to history. You will see it in the meandering canyon, and then as you slowly move forward, it will show more and more until you walk out of the canyon. It completely fills your eyeballs, tightly fills, and leaves for a long time.
When Petra was built, it is still inconclusive. According to the semi-Egypt and half-Greek style of the mausoleum, Petra was built in the 6th century BC, probably during the Ptolemy period, from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century BC. With the decline of the Ptolemy dynasty and the ancient kingdom of Seychelles, the Nabat kingdom began to prosper. In 106 AD, the kingdom of Nabat was captured by the Roman Empire and became a province of the Roman Empire. In the 3rd century, it may be due to the rise of the Sassanian Persian Empire and the prosperity of the maritime trade in the Red Sea. Petra, as a land transportation fortress, gradually declined. When it was conquered by the Arab army in the 7th century, it was an abandoned empty city.
Climb to the top of the ancient city of Petra and overlook the city outside. For more than two thousand years, it is the center of Middle Eastern civilization. After more than two thousand years, it is a land of dust and sand. This is just the historical memory left by nature.
