If you are planning a trip to Jordan and are wondering what activities can be done, here are five activities that can not be missed while you are traveling to Jordan.

 

 

Climb the rocky steps to the monastery in Petra

The famous city of Petra is a major attraction in Jordan. The ancient Nabataean city dates back to around 300 BC. Visitors reach it by walking in a narrow valley between the rocky cliffs known as the Siq.

 

The Siq ends with an amazing scene of a huge structure carved into the rock in a wonderful artistic way called "Al Khazneh", which was named so because it was believed to contain hidden treasures.

 

Equally astonishing is the sight of the nearby monastery, and although this site resembles a treasury in appearance, it is much larger, and can only be reached by climbing nearly 850 steps, which was formed directly into the rock thousands of years ago. Climbing the stairs can be a difficult challenge under the hot sun, but it is worth it due to the stunning views you reach and the surrounding area, make sure you drink enough water while climbing the steps, and stop on your way to catch your breath and admire the view, this experience will not be forgotten.
