Petra Travel Safety Guide — Jordan

Safety Score: 7.8/10 · Value: 7/10 · Beauty: 9.3/10

Petra was the capital of the Nabataean Kingdom (4th century BC – 1st century AD) and is one of the most extraordinary archaeological sites on Earth. The 1.2km Siq gorge (a natural crack in the sandstone mountains) opens dramatically onto the Treasury (Al-Khazneh), a 40-metre rose-red façade carved directly into the cliff. Beyond: a complete ancient city of 800+ structures, including tombs, temples, a Roman street, a Byzantine church, and the vast Monastery requiring 800 steps to reach.
