Petra by night, When you observe the simplicity, the Petra by night lack of modernity, and walk slowly through the narrow canyons of the site, illuminated by the occasional orange glow of paper lanterns, you will feel peaceful and intrigued. The candlelight reflecting off the rose rocks will impress you and leave you captivated by the reflections on the stones. All that, and you haven’t even seen the Khazna yet.
You will hear a lot of humming around you, but suddenly, silence descends over the area. Everyone will open their mouths in awe at the scene’s beauty and charm- hundreds of candles in front of the Khazna reflecting its light, creating a mesmerising spectacle that will stay etched in your mind forever.
It is one of the experiences you must witness before you die.
My advice, for what it’s worth, is not just to ‘see’ Petra at night. Take the time to truly experience it. Let its majesty wash over you, and seek out quiet moments of discovery wherever you can.
Who knows, you may just rediscover a part of yourself.
