Siq

To Peter is narrow and steep gorge Sik length of 1,2 km. Before entering the gorge you can see the so-called Vault of the obelisk, which is a modest hint that opens before us on. The gorge is so narrow, that allowed to pass close to only two riders. At the exit from the show the most beautiful building of Petra-El - Hazne that Bedouins called the "Treasury of the Pharaoh." It was carved in a monolithic rock, and played a likely role of the tomb for the ruler of Petra, perhaps for Aretasa IV and his wife. But the name took from the legendary treasure that Nabatiyah (in another version, the pirates) hid inside the vault. However, the treasures we have not seen. Inside the vault, consisting of two rooms, completely empty.
