Those Crazy Nabataeans







If there's one place people will visit while in Jordan it's definitely Petra, that "rose-red" city carved out of rock by the ancient Nabataeans in the 3rd century BC. At first I was a bit put-off by the 43 Jordanian dinar (about $60) price for a 3-day pass to explore Petra, but I quickly found it was well worth the money. Aside from the sights along the main road leading into central Petra, there are countless climbs, side trails, tombs, etc. that could take weeks to explore.
