Jordan trip | ashstylegourmet's Blog

My entry for the Weekly Photo Challenge- Magic dated November 18, 2016.

Walking through the Ancient city of Petra itself was a magical experience!

Petra in Jordan is a beautiful place to visit. We first walk through The Siq, a natural Sandstone gorge, a little over 2 Km or so walk winding through the ancient city of Petra to open into the most magnificent site that I ever saw -the treasury also know as Al Khazna, hence I choose a couple pictures from my Petra tour for this WPC-Magic.

After a 2 Km or so walk through “The Siq”, one gets mesmerized by this beautiful sight in front of our eyes, the most spectacular monument carved by the Nabataeans, it is 39.5 m high and carved out of a single block.

If you love travelling I would definitely recommend a visit to this fantastic place. 🙂

This week’s Weekly Photo Challenge is Landscape.

For this challenge I am including pictures that were clicked during my visit to the beautiful country Jordan. It was a great trip and the whole family enjoyed the vacation. The country has some of the most beautiful and breathtaking monuments that I have visited so far. Hope you all enjoy the pictures as much as I did visiting these places and capturing the amazing landscapes in my camera.
