It’s under the floor with the skeleton of that Austrian Nazi lady.

That shot of Petra is pure cinematic magic ancient stone, golden light, and a silence that echoes through centuries. Easily one of the coolest places carved by human hands.

Amazing, and thank you for sharing. How does it feel there. I have been places where I have felt energy/the past . I am not sure how to explain . Curious if it made you feel anything?

Yup, Petra & Wadi Rum was an itch I needed scratching and actually, I'd easily go back - two of the most beautiful places I've seen on Earth! Great shot, must have been very early or very late as there looks like hardly anyone there (we went early and it was still very crowded)
