Petra, Jordan

Nature Walk in Petra

Even the most urban cities hide pockets of nature for those willing to walk. Petra's parks, gardens, and green corridors offer a breathing space between the landmarks — and some of the best views you'll find.

Petra is the rose-red city carved from sandstone cliffs by the Nabataeans over 2,000 years ago, and walking through its narrow Siq canyon to the Treasury is one of the most dramatic reveals in all of archaeology.

Top Nature Walk Spots

•The Treasury (Al-Khazneh) — a 40-meter Nabataean tomb facade carved into rose-red sandstone cliffs around 100 BC, revealed at the end of a narrow 1.2-km canyon
•Royal Tombs — a row of monumental Nabataean burial chambers carved high into the sandstone cliff face, with the Urn Tomb later converted into a Byzantine church

Hidden Nature Walk Gems

•Al-Khubtha Trail — a less-traveled path climbing above the Royal Tombs to a viewpoint looking down on the Treasury from above
