👩🏫 Quick history lesson: Petra, known as the “Rose City,” was built by the Nabataeans around the 4th century BC in what is now Jordan. It became a wealthy trading hub thanks to its location on major caravan routes. The city is famous for its rock-cut architecture and water management system. It flourished for centuries but declined after Roman rule and earthquakes, eventually being forgotten until it was rediscovered by a Swiss explorer in 1812. Today, it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
