After a long hike you are well rewarded... | Al Khazneh "the Treasury" in Petra |
Coming to the end of the Siq, that long and narrow gorge that leads to the city, the first thing you see is the Al Khazneh also known as the treasury, what an amazing sight. If you've ever seen the Indiana Jones movie its just that same feeling, it wowes you. |
