Siq Al Barrid

Colloquially known as Little Petra, Siq Al Barrid is a few kilometres from Petra and was also built by the Nabateans. It is much quieter than its big brother and although much smaller is still spectacular. At the end are steep steps through a very narrow canyon leading to a view over the wind eroded landscape advertised as the “Greatest View in the World”, presumably by the woman who sells tea at the top.
