Once you arrive at Petra, you’ll start walking towards the entrance of the city. The entrance is called the Siq, and it’s a narrow canyon that leads into the city. As you walk through the Siq, you’ll be surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs that rise up to 80 meters high. The Siq is about 1.2 kilometers long, so it will take you around 20-30 minutes to walk through it. When you reach the end of the Siq, you’ll see the famous Treasury building, which is Petra’s most iconic landmark. The Treasury is carved out of solid rock and is decorated with intricate carvings and sculptures.

From the Treasury, you can continue exploring the city on foot. There are many other impressive buildings and structures to see, such as the Monastery, the Amphitheater, and the Royal Tombs. Your guide will provide you with information about each of these sites and their historical significance. You can also climb up to the High Place of Sacrifice, which offers stunning views of the city and the surrounding landscape. This climb can be challenging, so make sure you’re wearing comfortable shoes and are prepared for a steep ascent.
