| Petra - the ruins of the Nabatean city, which flourished in ancient times. Petra was then the capital of the Nabatean kingdom. It is located in southwestern Jordan. It is located in a rock valley, to which leads one narrow road among the rocks - the As-Sik gorge. Petra is famous for its numerous buildings carved in the rocks. The Nabataeans themselves called Petra Rqm Rakmu, which means `multi-colored`. |
