Petra (Al-Batrāʾ) Ancient Cities

Details
The city of Petra, which was the capital under the rule of the Nabataeans, an Arab tribe, is located in the lands between the Lake of Lut and the Gulf of Aqaba, which are also mentioned in the heavenly religions.
The city, which started to collapse over time when it was occupied by the Roman Empire, has become one of the forgotten cities.
There are hidden sections and royal tombs on the rocks where the city was built.
Structures such as theaters, temples and houses in the city were made of limestone. The decorations, especially on the front sides of the works, are eye-catching.
