Faq?
Petra is huge and there is loads to see. If you want to do it all, then you’ll need about 5 days. You can do the highlights in approximately 2 or 3, but you’ll leave yourself short if you try and cram everything into an afternoon.
Everything is accessible by foot – just wear good shoes! There are donkey and camel rides available but you don’t really need them.
The precise date is unknown, but it is on record from the 1st century BC. The city’s trade grew and it became capital of the Nabataean Empire.
