    The same merchandise, this time sell by a little girl, under the eye of her grandmother and brother. She really tried to sell us something. Well is just another place to buy something, just bargain, now you know the prices, so, try to get a good one. Of course the prices with bargain or without it are great.
    This girl, we where told after, is the sister of the woman with more beautiful eyes in all Petra. I can really belief it cause this little girl really had gorgeous eyes.
    When we where going she only told us ?do not buy to the man of the next shop? hahahahaha

  • Name of Shop: Climbing to monastery Shop

    yes, the same ... I think that is not the best place to put a shop, when you get up here you only want to live ... to brief, to rest a little, to be someone, and you know you have to go on ? you the last thing that comes to your head is to buy something.

    In a big cave there is the most fantastic place, a very fresh place to rest after a long hot walk ... this is the best place to put a shop with drinks. When you get here you don't want to go ... just rest there at the carpets and drink something to calm the thirst, also with VISA and lots of tables and things to buy

  • Name of Shop: View point Shop

    At the very top, when you search the Viewpoint after Monastery you will find the Viewpoint Shop. Like all the others they are moving shops. This man was going to Egypt in few days. He come here with his donkey, as the others, that wait for him under a little shadow.
    Like others, this man was very hospitality, and he had also good silver things. We spend with him a long time in that incredible beautiful place.
