🇯🇴Petra, an ancient city carved out of a cliff 2,000 years ago
Petra in Jordan is considered the most expensive tourist destination in the world, with an entrance fee of 50 dinars, or about 100,000 won.
However, you can see a magnificent sight that is well worth the price.
If you go down the red canyon, you will suddenly see the Al Khazneh ruins that appear unrealistically. It is an ancient ruin well known as Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. It is a temple that was carved and carved directly from the cliff.
In order to take a picture of Al Khazneh while sitting on the cliff as in images 1 and 3, you have to climb the cliffs on the left and right of Al Khazneh.
It is easy enough to climb on your own, but be careful because there are smoky-makeup touts who look like Jack Sparrow demanding a guide fee of more than 10,000 won, saying that you have to go up through them.
You can just go up and take a picture with your friends at the image 1 spot, or if you go up a little further and pay 1jd (about 2,000 won), there are people who will give you a cup of tea and take a video and picture (image 5) on the red carpet. This is cheap, so it is worth a try.
Many people only know the appearance of Al Khazneh, but it is only the tip of the iceberg. If you follow the canyon road that continues to the right of Al Khazneh, you will see the ancient city and necropolis where the Nabataeans lived 2,000 years ago. The library, laundry, and tombs they used... It is really amazing to feel the traces of people living there. It is so big that it can be called a city👍🏻
The donkeys and carriages for tourists that travel between them are also elements that make the appearance of this historic site unique.🫏 It is quite expensive, but since you have to walk a long way to see the highlights of the historic site, it is a good idea to bargain and use it when you are short on time or your feet hurt.
