A must visit, take very comfortable shoes and walk up to the Monastery. Its worth the effort as the views are breathtaking.

Petra is a must see for so many reasons. The history and the scenery are amazing, but the buildings carved out of stone some 2000 years ago are truly stunning. The best part for us was the walk up to the monastery which is a solid walk up about a thousand steps, but well worth it at the end. It... More

There are hardly words to describe Petra and the photos cannot come close to doing it justice. I have visited Petra on two separate occasions and I still saw things I must have overlooked the first time. If you are on a time cramp, you can see the main sites in around 5 hours round trip.

Pictures don't do it justice. Make sure you get a guide to explain everything to you as you go ...so much to see and learn along the way. Also go early less crowds and cooler. Loved it will hopefully go back someday
