27835755_1333536510126147_1885421829_o.jpgSteemit's best friend I would all share my visit to Petra, Jordan.

Petra means stone, in Arabic called al-Bitra, Petra is an archaeological site located in Ma'an, Jordan. This place is famous for its architectural buildings carved in rocks and irrigation systems. When we get to this place we will see the mountain of stone carved into a house and others. Me and my friends from other outside countries really like this place.

Petra is located in the lowlands between the mountains of Hor Mountain that form the eastern wing of Wadi Araba, the great valley that begins from the dead sea until the Gulf of Aqaba

The site is described as an antique red rose city in one of John William Burgon's poems and won the Newdigate Prize race.

Johann Ludwig Burckhardt of Switzerland first discovered this site after never being discovered by the western world until 1812.

The Smithsonian magazine chose Petra as one of 28 places to visit before dying.
