The Ancient World of Petra: 'The Red Rose City' - An Online Historical Tour

You are welcome to join me for another fascinating online tour, this time exploring the history, architecture and culture of the 2500-year-old city of Petra, Jordan. Settled by the nomadic Nabateans in the first few centuries BC, and fuelled by their wealth and profits as caravan traders from different global trade routes, the city of Petra grew into a famously rich city and culture, with stunning works of art, architecture and engineering. The city fell into the mists of time almost 1000 years ago and was unknown to the Western world until the early 1800s, when it surged in mystique and popularity and has since become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.
