Here are pictures from some of the highlights of our two days in the Petra ruins. One day we climbed to the "High Place of Sacrifice" and the next day to the "Monastery." The Monastery structure (above) is perhaps the best preserved in the entire site.
Above are two pictures of the Treasury structure at the entrance to the main ruins.
A (once) colonnaded Roman road.

More Roman road with the Nabetean era "Great Temple" in the background.
