eyes. Afterwards drive to visit one of the Jordanian handicraft shops, whereby
guests will look over the shoulders of mosaic art workers creating unique and
traditional styles with the Byzantine influence. Continue south to Kerak via the
King’s Highway which was used by caravans hundreds of years ago. The other

emperor. You arrive at Kerak which is one of the three largest castles in the region,
the other two being in Syria. Kerak is the capital city of the Kerak Governorate. As
an ancient Crusader stronghold, it is situated on a hilltop about 1000 meters above
sea level and is surrounded on three sides by a valley. Kerak has a view of the Dead
Sea. A city of about 20,000 people has been built up around the castle, and
includes buildings from the 19th century Ottoman period. The town is built on a
triangular plateau. Overnight in Petra

Petra “the spectacular rose red city” the lost city in the middle of nowhere with its
huge facades carved into the rocks that will take your breath away around each
corner.
It is a vast, unique city, carved into the sheer rock face by the Nabateans, an
industrious Arab people who settled here more than 2000 years ago, turning it into
an important junction for the silk, spice and other trade routes that linked China,
India and southern Arabia with Egypt, Syria, Greece and Rome. Petra has been
featured in Hollywood blockbusters such as "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade"
and " The Mummy Returns".
Beyond Al Khazneh you are surrounded on both sides by hundreds of Petra's curved
and built structures, soaring temples, elaborate royal tombs, a curved Nabatean
theater (seating 3,000 people), large and small houses, burial chambers, banquet
halls, water channels and Reservoirs, bathes, monumental staircases, cultic
