<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="aioseo-brief-history-of-petra">Brief History Of Petra</h2>



<p>Petra is an ancient city in southern <a href="https://thevoyagemagazine.com/10-of-the-best-things-to-see-in-jordan/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="Jordan">Jordan</a>, carved into towering sandstone cliffs by the Nabataean people over 2,000 years ago. It was once a bustling center of trade and commerce. It was a hub for the caravan routes connecting Asia, Africa, and Europe.</p>



<p>Today, Petra stands as one of the world&#8217;s most awe-inspiring archaeological sites, drawing visitors from all over the world to explore its ancient ruins and marvel at its natural beauty. It was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1985 and was recently named one of the World&#8217;s New Seven Wonders.</p>



<p>The Nabataean people settled in Petra around the 6th century BC. Over time, they transformed the rocky landscape into a stunning architecture and engineering city. The most iconic building in Petra is the Treasury, which was carved into the rock face in the 1st century AD and served as a tomb for a Nabataean king. The city also features a theater, a monastery, and several other impressive tombs and buildings.</p>



<p>Petra was a thriving city until it was abandoned in the 7th century AD, likely due to a combination of factors, including earthquake damage, changes in trade routes, and political instability. For centuries, Petra remained largely unknown to the outside world. It was in the early 19th century that Swiss explorer <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Ludwig_Burckhardt" target="_blank" rel="noopener" title="Johann Ludwig Burckhardt">Johann Ludwig Burckhardt</a> rediscovered it.</p>
