- Join us as we walk around Petra and delve into its fascinating history. This video is the shortened version of our 45 minute full tour of Petra (see previous video on our channel). We explain what makes the Nabataeans such a unique civilisation and Petra one of the most breathtaking historical sites in the world. We provide insights into the architecture, daily life, water management, culture, economy & religion - highlighting key features and hidden gems along the way.
Petra, also known as the Rose City, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Jordan. It was built over 2,000 years ago by the Nabateans and served as a major trading hub and capital city. As we walk through the narrow Siq, marvel at the iconic Treasury, and explore the ancient tombs and temples carved into the pink sandstone cliffs, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the significance and beauty of Petra. So join us as we take you on a full tour of this ancient city!

Please let us know what you thought about this video! We’re just getting started so feedback is really useful! 😊
Que hermosa rs la Ciudad de Petra, no me canso de verla. Hermosa ¡¡¡ 🎉es 💯🤩🙏👍
The name the “rose city” really captures the beauty of it! Thanks for watching 🙏
Look forward to this channel blowing up and I can say I was one of the OG's. The editing, narration and obviously locations are top tier.
Thank you sir 🙏🏻 It’s great to get words of encouragement :) There seems to be a lot of nuisance UA-camrs getting outrage clicks or people literally destroying precious items for views. It would restore my faith in humanity if people liked the kind of wholesome content we create instead 🤣 But regardless we’re just going to keep making it anyway 😂
@@less-travelled I'm the same. If you do get a chance to peak at my stuff. For 5 months now I've made these little documentary things and I feel like its going well. I made a good one on the lisbon earthquake of 1755. Amazing subject.
Love this!!! I’ve subscribed 😊
So glad you liked it! We’ve already filmed more historical sites - so stayed tuned!! 😊 Thanks for the sub!
Great video!
Thank you sir 🙏
Very cool. I’m excited to see where you go next!
Awesome! We’ve already filmed the next series… in a country nearby 😉
Its beautiful 😮 merci du Québec, I'm a new follower 😊 why it is not mentioned in the bible? Maybe it has another name?
Thanks for subscribing!! 😁 Yeah exactly - I believe it’s referred to by the Hebrew name ‘Sela’ a couple times (and it was part of the route Moses took), but generally I think it just wasn’t that relevant to the people and places in the bible.
Greek and roman copped the city from petra there is look alike in madaen saleh in Saudi arabea
sadly not abandoned.... the Quraan mentions about it and its people.
It’s difficult to summarise the history in a short video: in 19th century only local Bedouin knew about it so I said abandoned especially as it was a thriving city once 🤷🏼♂️ Interesting you mention the Qu’ran, I understand Petra is not mentioned by name but it may fit the description of Mecca? But I’m not an expert! Hope you enjoyed the video anyway!
Totally beautiful city I did not know it was more of the city for the dead. That’s kind of cool, but the lack of respect why humans Let their animals poop all over it And desecrate it Just makes me sick to my Stomach. This is history and there destroying it.
It’s an interesting idea, it must have been quite confronting to enter the city and immediately be reminded of death, your own impermanence and the people you once knew - maybe they just got used to it 😂 And yeah shame about the animals pooping, they won’t be laughing when Dushara’s curse catches up with them 😂
