Inhabited since prehistoric
times, this Nabataean caravan-city, situated between the Red Sea and the Dead
Sea, was an important crossroads between Arabia ,
Egypt and
Syria-Phoenicia. Petra
is half-built, half-carved into the rock, and is surrounded by mountains
riddled with passages and gorges. It is one of the world's most famous
archaeological sites, where ancient Eastern traditions blend with Hellenistic
architecture.
