Petra at Wadi Mousa
Everyone knows Petra from either visiting it, as one of the great places to visit in the world or from the Indiana Jones film as the Treasury Building which is iconic.
Given the political and military situation in the Middle East, tourists have stayed away and the place is empty, so conversely, it is a great time to visit, you just have to ignore the whoosh of rockets, the whine of drones and the ack-ack of artillery fire that is some way off in the distance...or as one of the locals suggested, it was just training to keep you safe.
There were a great many fantastic sights to see but none that I could record for prosperity as my camera decided to have a day off. One more day off and it is scheduled for the dustbin and I will need an upgrade.
