الخزنة · The Treasury
The facade that appears at the end of the Siq: 39 m tall and 25 wide, carved into the pink rock in the 1st century.
Tip: Get there before 7 in the morning: the sun only hits the facade head-on by mid-morning, but at first light you have it almost to yourself.
🚇 Under 100 m on foot from the Treasury; about 2 km from the Visitor Center through the Siq
Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapالسيق · The Siq
The 1.2 km crack that splits the mountain: walls up to 80 m high, so narrow it closes to 3 m in places.
Tip: Look down at ankle height: the carved Nabataean water channel runs along both sides the whole way. That is 2,000-year-old engineering.

Show on mapباب السيق · Bab as-Siq
The open 800 m stretch between the Visitor Center and the mouth of the Siq: this is where the tombs begin.
Tip: This is where they offer you the horse ride included in your ticket. The stretch is short and flat: if you take it, a tip of around 5 JOD is expected.
🚇 0.5 km from the Visitor Center, inside the park; you walk in through the Siq

Three solid stone cubes from the Nabataean era, somewhere between funerary towers and water markers: nobody really knows what they are.
Tip: There are 26 across Petra but only three sit right on the path. Walk past on the north side: that is where the stepped carving is best preserved.

Two monuments stacked on the same wall: four Egyptian-style obelisks on top, a classical funerary dining hall below.
Tip: It is the best example of Nabataean blending: Egypt above, Rome below. Cross to the other side of the path to take both in at once.

The diversion the Nabataeans cut to take flood water out of the Siq: the reason Petra survived.
Tip: It is not decorative: it is flood control. If the park sounds the sirens, the water that should be running through here is the water pouring into the Siq.

Halfway up the Siq wall, the legs of two life-size camels and their drivers are still there, worn down by water.
Tip: It is on the left-hand wall as you walk toward the Treasury. Look at your waist height: the camel legs sit a few steps from the channel.

The stretch right after the Treasury: the canyon opens up and the walls fill with carved facades side by side.
Tip: Here the canyon goes from 3 m wide to 60. It is the best place to grasp that Petra was a city, not one standalone monument.

More than 40 Assyrian-style tombs carved in a row along the wall: the densest necropolis in the park.
Tip: Climb the first few steps of any of the lower tombs: from up there the whole row lines up in perspective and the photo changes completely.

An 8,500-seat theater carved straight into the rock, slicing through older tombs to make room.
Tip: Look at the wall behind the stage: you can see the tombs left cut in half when the theater was enlarged. Archaeology you can read with your own eyes.

The front of four monumental tombs on the Al-Khubtha slope, with the most intense color veining in Petra.
Tip: Come up late in the day: the afternoon sun hits them head-on and the red, yellow and violet veins in the sandstone light up.

The most imposing of the Royal Tombs, with a double arcade holding it up and a vast inner hall recycled as a church in 447.
Tip: Step into the chamber: the Greek inscription on the wall records the exact day in 447 when it was consecrated as a Byzantine cathedral.

The most colorful facade in the park: the sandstone forms pink, blue and yellow bands like crumpled fabric.
Tip: It is the least visited of the four Royal Tombs and the one that photographs best in the soft light of early morning.

The widest facade in Petra, three stories tall, imitating a Roman palace; the upper section is built from cut blocks, not carved.
Tip: Look at the top left corner: that is where the mountain ran out and they had to raise the last section with stacked blocks.

The only tomb in Petra with the name of the deceased above the door: a Roman governor of Arabia, around 130.

The balcony at the end of Al-Khubtha: the whole Treasury, head-on and from up high, with nobody in front of you.
Tip: There is no railing. Stay a couple of steps back from the edge and use the zoom instead of moving closer: there have been serious accidents here.
🚇 Under 100 m on foot from the Treasury; about 2 km from the Visitor Center through the Siq

Show on mapالنمفيوم · Lower City
The monumental public fountain on the corner where the Wadi Musa meets the Colonnaded Street; the 450-year-old pistachio tree is still standing.
Tip: The tree shading it is a centuries-old wild pistachio: the only patch of natural shade in the entire lower city.

Featured in: PDTRA · Visit Petra 2026
Show on mapالشارع المعمد · Lower City
The main avenue of the Roman-Nabataean city, with its original paving and the column bases still standing.
Tip: Walk it on the original slabs, not along the dirt shoulder: the 1st-century paving is still there and you are allowed to tread on it.
🚇 0.3 km on foot from Qasr al-Bint; about 4 km from the Visitor Center
Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapالمعبد الكبير · Lower City
7,000 m² of sacred precinct with a small theatron inside, the largest building excavated in Petra.
Tip: Climb up to the theatron inside: it is a small auditorium within the temple, and there is still debate over whether it was religious or the city council.
🚇 0.2 km on foot from Qasr al-Bint; about 4 km from the Visitor Center
Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapمعبد الأسود المجنحة · Lower City
A temple most likely dedicated to the goddess al-Uzza, with winged-lion capitals; still under excavation.

Featured in: PDTRA · Visit Petra 2026
Show on mapقصر البنت · Al-Habis
The only large building in Petra raised with blocks rather than carved; 23 m tall and still standing after the earthquakes.
Tip: It is the furthest point of the flat route and the end of the Main Trail. The climb to the Monastery starts from here.

Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapالكنيسة البيزنطية · Lower City
A 5th-century basilica with some 70 m² of floor mosaics almost intact, protected under a modern roof: the only shelter in the park.
Tip: It is the only roofed spot in the park: if rain or hard sun catches you, this is where you duck in. And the mosaics are worth the stop anyway.
🚇 0.4 km on foot from Qasr al-Bint; about 4 km from the Visitor Center
Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapالدير · Ad-Deir
The largest facade in Petra: 45 m tall by 50 wide, at the end of a path of some 900 steps.

Featured in: UNESCO 1985 · PDTRA
Show on mapدرب الدير · Ad-Deir
The Nabataean stairway that climbs the Wadi Kharrubat up to Ad-Deir, with tombs and tea stalls along the way.
Tip: The real figure is around 900 steps, not 800. Carry 2 liters of water per person: up top a bottle costs three times as much.

The summit behind the Monastery, with an open view over the Wadi Araba and, on a clear day, as far as the mountains of Israel.

The Nabataean ritual platform carved on the summit of Jabal al-Madhbah, with its altars and drainage channels intact.
Tip: It is a 1.5 h climb from the Theater. Come down the other side, through the Wadi Farasa: you close a loop and never repeat a single step.

A lion-shaped fountain carved into the wall, fed by a channel that came down from the altar.

The canyon you come down from the High Place: tombs, triclinia, cisterns and not a soul for hours.
Tip: Coming down this way turns the High Place into a loop. It takes longer than going back the way you climbed, but it is the best part of the day.

The plateau that towers over Petra from 1,100 m above sea level, holding the oldest Edomite settlement on the site.

The white mountain you can see from all over Petra: 7 km of trail and 1,353 m above sea level at the top.
Tip: The official sheet gives 3:45 to 4 h one way and some 9,186 steps. Set off at dawn and take a guide: the trail fades out.

Petra's southern suburb: an entire Roman theater lost in a wadi 8 h of walking away, with almost no visitors all year.
Tip: It is a full day with a guide (8 h according to the official sheet). If you have already done Petra twice, this is the reward.

A grocery in central Wadi Musa that marks prices on the shelf, one of the few that does not improvise the rate depending on who walks in.
Tip: Traveler maps flag it precisely because it displays its prices. If a place does not show them, ask before they wrap it up for you.
🚇 A few steps from Tourism Street; in Wadi Musa you get around on foot or by local taxi
