MUST SEE 7 Wonders of the World - Ancient PETRA city

#ancientcities Petra, one of the new 7 wonders of the world and UNESCO world heritage site, is truly amazing and beautiful. Petra is an ancient city in Hellenistic and Roman times. This means over 2000 years ago! While Petra is well known for the treasury, the other parts like the monastery, the tombs and the great temple are all pretty and impressive in their own ways! The hike to the monastery is definitely worth it. Also did the wadi al farasa trail to the high place of sacrifice which is moderately challenging especially going to the altar with crazy wind and steep slope. But you will get a panoramic view of petra and along the way see other interesting architectures. I spent 8 hours at Petra. Do note that the walk into Petra from the tourist information centre is about 30-40 mins walk.
