I cannot stress this enough, this place is beyond magical and it is larger than life itself. Once there was a very large community living here and this whole city have a lot of invention that until today remains relevant. Nothing much is written about the Nabatean civilisation here and you can hire a guide when you buy a ticket but i don’t think it is worth doing so because nothing they share is worth while ( not to mention if you can hardly understand their English, ) better to hire a proper guide from the city or make prior arrangement with a true history lover.

We walked from the snake road to the end of the canyon, and a "building" appeared in front of us. This is the Khazni Temple. It is a temple in the center of Petra, Jordan. It is commonly known as the "treasure house". It is famous for the filming of the third Indiana Jones film here. The temple was carved from a block of sandstone by the Nabataean Kingdom and has a history of two thousand years. The local Bedouin people say that there are treasures hidden on the top, so the temple is commonly known as the treasure house.
The end of the snake path is the Khazni Temple, which is also the most fascinating landmark in Petra, full of mystery. Although it is called a temple, its true purpose is still unclear. When we came here during the day, it was very lively, and when it was getting dark, we passed by again, and the front door was empty. Then when we look at the temple, we suddenly have a feeling of talking to it, because there is nothing around to remind you of where you are now. Time and space.
The Khazni Temple is the most representative business card of the ancient city of Petra, located on the canyon passage leading to the ancient city. The gate of the temple was built by the vertical mountain surface slightly inwardly embedded and excavated. It is divided into two floors, with six Roman columns on the bottom and three decorative shrines on the upper floor. The hall of the temple was hollowed out of the mountain. The entire mountain is seventy to eighty meters high, and the gate of the temple occupies forty meters. People have to look up and look up close, which is very magnificent.
Khazni Temple: It is the largest building in the ancient city of Petra, built on the hillside. There are main halls and side halls in the palace, which are very magnificent, which shows the scale of this ancient city. Legend has it that there was a collection of the wealth of Petra kings in the past, and some people say that it is a mausoleum. This is the most popular place for tourists to stay. You can ride a camel to take pictures in front of the temple. There is a place to rest and eat on the opposite side. It is the most lively place in the ancient city.
