Petra - The forgotten treasure

If we used only one word to describe Jordan, that word would be "Sand". Sand is in a variety of shapes and shades. Sand bounces in the wind along the Jordan River valley, forming a layer of mineral mud on the bottom of the Dead Sea, forming sandstone on mysterious rocky deserts. These sandstone blocks gave birth to a wonder of the world: Petra. The ancient city of Petra is the jewel of the country of Jordan, has been classified as a heritage by UNESCO since 1985.
