Second day in Petra Treasure

I visited Petra for two days, but the Second day in Petra Treasure I stayed all day there and explored more places. I went through all the points from the previous day including the canyons (As-Siq), the treasure (Al-Khazneh) and the Urn Tomb.

On the way I entered a cave similar to the place where the Bedouins live and crossed many animals including donkeys and camels

We crossed a street with columns to reach Qasr al-Bint, one of the most important temples.

We had a lunch break and for 10 dinars (about 12 euros) we accessed a buffet. DCIM100GOPRO

After that, we headed towards the Monastery, climbing 800 steps of stairs. On the way I paused to relax and watch the suffering donkeys come up the stairs. The monastery is similar to the treasure, but in smaller proportions.

From this place you can reach a great lookout following some signs.

We got off at around 5PM. with the sun going down and walked for half an hour in the dark until we reached the main entrance. At this entrance I could still see the distances I had on the course in Petra.
