Petra’s most famous monument, the Treasury, appears dramatically at the end of the Siq. Used in the final sequence of the movie “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade”, the towering facade of the Treasury is only one of myriad architectural wonders to be explored at Petra.

Various walks and climbs reveal literally hundreds of rock cut tombs and temple façades, funerary halls and rock reliefs. There’s also a 3000-seat theatre from the early 1st century AD, a Palace Tomb in the Roman style, and a gigantic 1st century Deir (Monastery).
