• Petra Visitors Center - Begin an unforgettable adventure at the Petra Visitors Center, where a licensed local guide will warmly welcome you and assist you at the ticket counter.

After purchasing your entry ticket or exchanging your Jordan pass, you’ll enter the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Petra.

• Siq - The Siq of Petra is a captivating natural passageway that serves as the grand entrance to the ancient city. Spanning over 1.2 kilometers, this narrow gorge is bordered by towering sandstone cliffs reaching up to 80 meters high. As you stroll through its winding path, you’ll encounter stunning rock formations, Nabataean carvings, and remnants of ancient water channels. The Siq heightens anticipation with every step, culminating in the breathtaking first view of Petra’s most iconic monument: the Treasury (Al-Khazneh). It’s more than just a passage—it’s an experience that sets the stage for the marvels ahead.

• Al-Khazneh - The Treasury of Petra, known in Arabic as Al-Khazneh, is the most iconic and photographed monument in Petra.

Carved directly into the rose-red sandstone cliff, its majestic façade stands nearly 40 meters high and is richly adorned with Hellenistic architectural elements—columns, statues, and intricate carvings.

Once thought to hold hidden treasure (hence the name), the Treasury’s true purpose remains debated, though many scholars believe it to have been a royal tomb. As you emerge from the Siq, the first breathtaking view of this monument is unforgettable—one of the most awe-inspiring moments in any traveler’s journey through Petra. More than just a structure, the Treasury is a timeless symbol of Nabataean ingenuity, mystery, and artistic brilliance.

• Street of Facades - The Street of Facades is one of Petra’s most striking and mysterious landmarks, located just beyond the iconic Treasury. This impressive row of monumental Nabataean tombs is carved directly into the sandstone cliffs, featuring a blend of architectural styles influenced by ancient Assyrian, Egyptian, and Hellenistic design. The facades vary in size and detail, showcasing the wealth and status of those buried within. As you walk along this grand passage, you’ll feel the grandeur of a civilization that once thrived here, surrounded by towering cliffs and intricate carvings that have stood the test of time. The Street of Facades is a powerful introduction to the vast necropolis of Petra and offers a glimpse into the artistry, culture, and beliefs of the Nabataeans.
• Nabatean Theatre - The Nabataean Theatre is a remarkable structure carved into the red sandstone cliffs around the 1st century AD.

Unlike Roman theatres built with separate stone blocks, this one was hewn directly into the mountain, making it unique among ancient performance spaces. With a capacity of up to 4,000 spectators, it reflects the Nabataeans’ advanced engineering skills and their cultural openness to Greco-Roman influences.

The theatre once hosted public events, political gatherings, and possibly religious ceremonies, serving as a vibrant hub of Nabataean society. Surrounded by tombs and monumental facades, the theatre offers visitors an unforgettable setting where history, architecture, and the dramatic natural landscape blend seamlessly.

• The Royal Tombs - The Royal Tombs of Petra are among the most majestic and visually striking monuments carved into the eastern cliffs overlooking the ancient city center. This grand cluster includes the Urn Tomb, Silk Tomb, Corinthian Tomb, and Palace Tomb, each showcasing unique architectural styles influenced by Roman and Hellenistic design. Although the exact identities of those buried remain uncertain, their scale and detail suggest they were built for Nabataean royalty or elite figures. The richly colored sandstone—especially visible in the Silk Tomb—creates a natural mosaic of reds, oranges, and purples. Climbing up to the Royal Tombs rewards visitors with not only a close view of their intricate facades but also a breathtaking panorama of Petra’s archaeological landscape.

• The Colonnaded Street - The Colonnaded Street was once the bustling heart of Petra’s commercial and civic life. Lined with elegant columns on both sides, this paved avenue dates back to the 1st century AD and reflects strong Roman influence during the later Nabataean period. The street originally connected important public buildings, markets, and temples, including the Great Temple, Qasr al-Bint, and a nymphaeum (public fountain). As you walk its length, you’re following in the footsteps of ancient traders, priests, and citizens who once gathered here for festivals, shopping, and public life. Though many of the original structures lie in ruins, the Colonnaded Street remains a powerful reminder of Petra’s vibrant urban center and its blend of Nabataean and Greco-Roman culture.
