Spent a couple days in Petra, Jordan. It's amazing what people 2,000 years ago could accomplish! The Treasury which is featured in the third Indiana Jones movie is as monumental as any ruins. The other building is the "Monastary" which is accessed by climbing 900 steps up the side of a mountain. Used a Sony RX10 VI; a great all purpose travel rig....
Very spectacular. THanks for taking us there.
Thanks! One of those places where everything was material for image captures
Thanks, one of the most remarkable places I've ever been.
Was also featured in one of the transformer movies, awesome set Tony

Thank you! No, unfortunately you're not allowed to go inside. Actually, there's only one big open room in both buildings. What you're not told is that there are numerous buildings like these cut into the rock walls. The general consensus is that they were tombs.
