Petra: A World Wonder: Petra, the ancient Nabataean city locked in the
heart of Jordan’s sandstone escarpments, is the jewel in the crown of the
country’s many antiquities. Ever since explorer Jean Louis Burckhardt
brought news of the pink-hued necropolis back to Europe in the 19th
century, the walk through the Siq to the Treasury (Petra’s defining
monument) has impressed even the most travel weary of visitors. With
sites flung over a vast rocky landscape and a mood that changes with the
shifting light of dawn and dusk, this is a highlight that rewards a longer
visit.
Desert Landscapes: Take a ride through Wadi Rum at sunset, and it's easy
to see why TE Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) was so drawn to this land of
weathered sandstone and reddened dunes. But Jordan's desert landscapes
are not confined to the southeast: they encompass a salt sea at the lowest
point on earth, canyons flowing with seasonal water, oases of palm trees
and explosions of springtime flowers scattered across arid hills. Minimal
planning and only a modest budget is required for an adventure.
