Day by day

Day 1: Arrival in Petra. Petra is an ancient city carved into red rock, with the impressive Al Khazneh as its landmark. For the day of arrival, the Mövenpick Resort Petra, a walk and the anticipation are enough. The city takes strength, and you save that for tomorrow.

Day 2: The Treasury. The Treasury is a temple carved into the rock with an elaborate facade, probably a mausoleum. Walk through the Siq early, while the light falls softly into the gorge. Stand for a long time when the facade opens up. A moment you do not plan but experience.

Day 3: Temple / Colonnaded Triclinium. Siq al-Barid, also called Little Petra, has a temple with a columned facade in the style of the Nabataean period, carved in sandstone. The place is smaller and quieter than the great Petra. A day that sharpens the eye for detail and promises fewer crowds.

Day 4: AlDayr. Ad-Deir is a rock-cut monastery from before Christ, built as a monumental tomb. The way there leads up many steps, so bring water, sturdy footwear and time. A day that demands effort and rewards you with a wide view. That way the evening stays relaxed and you go into the next day rested.

Day 5: Al-Siq. The Siq is the natural gorge that leads to the temples, with red rock walls on both sides. Walk slowly, look up and let the light work. Today is only about this path, not the destination.

Day 6: Petra Museum. The Petra Museum shows finds from the city and explains how the Nabataeans lived. Go in the morning, before heading into the rock, or on a day when you need rest. A day that brings knowledge and spares the legs.

Day 7: Great Temple. The Great Temple is a ruin covering one hectare in the middle of Petra. Go in the afternoon, when the sun is lower, and sit down among the columns. A day on which you calmly see how large the city once was.

Day 8: Obelisk Tomb & Bab as-Siq Triclinium. The Obelisk Tomb and the Bab as-Siq Triclinium are burial complexes, cut into the rock in ancient times. The Royal Tombs on the wall of Jabal al-Khubtha belong here as well. A day on which you walk slowly and compare facades, with plenty of shade and breaks.

Day 9: Farewell to Petra. The High Place of Sacrifice lies on a mountain and offers a view of ancient Petra. The ascent is steep, so go early. At the top you sit down, stay silent for a while and let the days return. Afterwards, have breakfast without hurry and drive to the airport.
