Petra - City of Rock

We made our way down to Petra on our first day in Jordan. We actually had a long and winding road down the King's Highway, and then went to Petra on our second day.

This is the "Treasury" building, the first major building you see when you walk out of the narrow gorge entrance to Petra.

A large theatre was carved out of the rock. I wonder what they did there. Rock concerts?
