Petra By Night

Not long after arriving in Wadi Musa, and consuming a decent kebab, we headed to Petra proper, to experience "Petra By Night". The Siq, which we'd read so much about, was lined with 1500 candles, eerily lighting the narrow gorge that leads to the Treasury. A perfect introduction to the wonders of the Siq and the Nabatean city of Petra, romantic yet holding something back for the next day.
