View from Sacrificial Spot, Petra |
Ever since I saw Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade as a little girl I have wanted to travel to Jordan. And in February this year I did just that. If you are keen on spending the week somewhere truly undiscovered then consider heading to the Middle East or more specifically, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. Whilst you are there, check out the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Lost City of Petra. This astonishing sight is the country’s most visited tourist attraction, so you’ll know it’s not one to miss. It's worth noting that summer temperatures regularly exceed 40oC which can seem hotter without shade especially when you are climbing 800 steps up to the sacrificial spot in Petra.
