Things to do in Wadi Moussa

🌙 Petra by Night — where ancient wonders glow by candlelight, the desert falls silent, and history feels like a dream. ✨🇯🇴❤️💫🛕#PetraByNight #Jordan #WondersOfTheWorld #TravelDreams

A beautiful place. Make sure to allocate enough time for it as it takes a while to hike from the entrance.

The Snake Road is a canyon leading to the ancient city of Petra. It is called the "Snake Road" because of its winding and narrow shape. The narrowest part here can only pass a horse-drawn carriage, and the slightly wider part is only a few meters. The cliffs on both sides of the Snake Road are brightly colored. The deepest impression is when you are near the Khazneh Temple, passing through the narrowest snake road, a ray of sunlight shines on the cliff of the Khazneh Temple, and that moment makes you cry.

After all, it is one of the New Seven Wonders of the World and is well worth a visit, but don't hold your hopes too high as the management inside is very chaotic.

[Scenery] Very beautiful [Fun] Interesting [Value for money] Worth going

It's a relatively isolated place, but I personally like it very much. There are fewer tourists here and it's relatively quiet. I think the preserved buildings here are very delicate, and there are many details to see.

the most underrated trail in petra. there are not many crowds and the views are amazing

At the end of the avenue of columns, everyone was exhausted. The next thing to face was more than 1,800 steps carved along the rock. Only by climbing these winding stone steps could we reach the "Deir Monastery" in the deepest part of Petra. Although everyone was confident, they still sat down for a short rest before continuing on the road. On the way up the mountain, sometimes we walked through narrow canyons, met two goats staring at you on the winding cliffs, sometimes looked back on the abrupt boulders, overlooking the center of the ancient city of Petra, and sometimes sat on the side of the road, watching groups of tourists from all over the world passing by. After nearly two hours of climbing, the end of the steps suddenly opened up, and the monastery appeared in front of us on the right side of the huge square. The monastery is very different from what I have in mind or what I have seen in Europe. It turns out that this is also a temple built by the Nabateans. It was only during the Roman Empire and Byzantine period that it was converted into a monastery, and then it has been passed down as a monastery. Interestingly, the bottom of the monastery is very weathered, but the higher it goes, the more intact it is. The weathering at the bottom seems to be eroded by water, but the eroded parts are not on the same plane, which is puzzling. The way down the mountain is not that difficult to walk, and there is no need to walk, rest, or look around, so the speed is much faster. It took more than an hour to reach the Khazneh Temple, while it took more than two hours to walk up the mountain.
