Hey fellow wanderlusters! I’m still buzzing from my recent trip to Petra – what an absolutely mind-blowing place! I couldn’t get over how massive and intricate those rock-cut facades are. Seriously, how did the Nabataeans pull that off without modern tools?! I’m dying to hear about other people’s experiences there. Did anyone else attempt the hike up to the Monastery? I nearly died on those 800+ steps, but man oh man, that view at the top was worth every drop of sweat! And please tell me I’m not the only one who got a bit emotional emerging from the Siq and seeing the Treasury for the first time – it literally took my breath away. What was the highlight of Petra for you guys? Any pro tips for making the most of a visit?
