The Red Rock of Petra

The narrow, steep gorge abruptly opened into a wide funnel, and our eyes
opened in disbelief. In front of us, there was a huge temple carved into the red
rock, gazing with contempt at the mundane, transient creatures, who pilgrimed
to admire its grandeur.
I hope that some of this unbelievable beauty and splendor can be perceived through this gallery of
pictures.
You are welcome to post comments, and have a bon voyage.
