Why this trip
If you walk through the Siq, the narrow gorge with pink rock walls, and catch sight of the Treasury at the end, you forget heat and distances. Petra is the rock city of the Nabataeans and a wonder of the world in stone, for families a day that stays in children's memory. The entrance leads through the Siq to the facade of the Treasury, called Al Khazneh, which is 45 metres high. After that come royal tombs, the Obelisk Tomb with the Bab as-Siq Triclinium and the High Place of Sacrifice on a mountain.
The Monastery Al Dayr lies high up, the climb takes a while and is too much for older people and small children. It is best to set prayer times at breaks in the valley. The Petra Guest House and the Petra Marriott Hotel come from the hotel list. The best time is from March to May and in October and November; in summer it is too hot.
Wadi Rum, Aqaba and Amman are neighbours. The Jordan Pass combines the visa with admission and is worthwhile for most travellers. Cash in dinars is useful. Two nights in Petra allow one visit in the morning and one in the evening, when the site is quieter.
