High Place of Sacrifice

Sheltered within a valley of red rocks is one of the world’s most famous façades. Marvel at the artistic details that remain crisp after more than 2,000 years.

This fascinating amphitheater was carved out of the rock face, just like the surrounding tombs of the famous UNESCO World Heritage site of Petra.

Pass through this ancient passage, study the old water pipes and watch the red walls begin to close overhead, before opening to reveal the Treasury.

Rows of extraordinary palaces seem to grow from within the colorful mountain rock. Climb the stairs to reach these marvels of the world.

Admire different styles of architecture and examine the craftsmanship of this ancient structure at the start of Petra, the UNESCO World Heritage-listed “Lost City” of Jordan.

Stand beneath ancient stone columns, admire the detail of the large mosaics or just take in the views from this 5th-century ruin.
