Petra, an amazing place, a huge complex of buldings carved in the rock. Amazing tombs wich seem palaces, amphitheater, fountains, monolites, sacrifice altar and of course, a museum. You find misticism and history in the same place, legends and daily life.

| Favourite spots: |
|
Walking through the cliff called the Siq and find at the end one of the greatest buldings the treasury is a great feeling. Climb all the way up(more than 1 hour in my case) to admire the Monastery is really, really worth. At the end of your day you can take a break and drink a cup of delicious hot tea. The soliders tomb, and the Lion fountain are nice to see.

|
| Sights: |
|
The Lost City of Petra, you have to buy a ticket for 1,2 or 3 days, depends on how many time do you want to spend inside. 2 days is my advice, this will cost you around 50usd.

A nice small room with 2 beds and private toilet in a hotel called Cleopetra was 6 dinars.
|
|

Muslims don't drink but... you can find a nice club next to the entrance of Petra. You can find a cold beer there.
|
