Petra, Jodan
Like many people before me, I walked through the so called Siq(a narrow gorge path way led to the city) and came to this "OWE" to see the amazing monument ---The Treasury. This UNESCO World Heritage site is definitely one of the world wonder that can capture your eye and keep your imagination run wild. Not so much because the movie of The Indian Jones and The Last Crusade, but rather the nature of its environment that makes you pondering how the Nabetean people built this city back then? The facades of all the architecture in the city tell stories of the once great civilization. Yet the ruin today reminds us no matter how great thing was, it will all come to an end. Like all other ancient cultures, only when they become history, can people glorify their past.
