Petra

Petra is the most famous site in Jordan. It became  a UNESCO site in 1985 and was named on of the Seven Wonders of the World in 2007. 
Though the area has been inhabited for several thousand years, Petra was established as a trading hub around 300 BC.
It’s the Treasury that most people are familiar with but, it is actually a large complex of tombs, temples, and market place. I spent eight hours exploring and there was still parts I hadn’t seen.
