  • Jarash is a great place to go after Petra!

  • In the starting point, you'll find the lighting fire in the big square of Jarash!
    I liked it so much!
    it is 24 hours lighted!
    and at night it is great to see it burning and lighting the way to Jarash!

    Things To Do: Out Standing!

  • Now that’s really something great!
    I couldn't imagine people in the past were as smarter as this!
    Well you can see the Queens Bath here presenting the big place were the queen is sitting in the little pool!
    And the canals where the water come out to fill the bath!
    But look good the water falls from the mouth of a lion statue and drop to the ground where the fish’s picture in a sort of dish is placed!
    When it is full of water, a person who looks there will have the impression and illusion that the fishes are moving!
    Fantastic thing huh!

  • Petra and Aqaba and Wadi el Roum are all placed in the South of Jordan, they all deserves a visit, and don't forget there is a another smaller Petra in Saudi Arabia in Najed Sahara!
    it is worth a visit if you want to discover all the relationship between the 2 sites and have a perfect idea of the Naboutians great civilization.

  • Petra is famous in Jordan like the Red Rose city, it is easy to know why once you visit Petra, the colors comes from the special stones, Petra site in the past, we talk here about million years ago was under the sea!
    the stones have a special color coming from the sea effect!
