Petra Horseman
A horseman riding through the siq toward the imposing Treasury in the Nabatean ruins of Petra in Jordan.
A classic and timeless location but made unique by the appearance of the horseman in the shaft of light. (These guys ferry tourists who don’t want to walk through the siq)
The lost city was rediscovered in the mid 1800’s.
I only spent a couple of days here but the enormity of the location is astounding. There is so much archeological work to be done here – and so much still to be found – it will be a never ending quest.
