Israel

 Hello,

This is Petra. Its one of the seven wonders of the world. We had to hiked for 45 minutes to reach the main site. I SURVIVED! 

See that amazing building in the background of the photo? well, thats only the entrance of Petra. There are many more sites and places of attractions to see inside, but sadly, a sandstorm was coming and we had to leave :( 

Petra in greek means rock, its the root word of 'peter', the name. And the building that you see, was build by humans! They carved every drawing and every statue out of the limestone in Petra. Limestones are soft stones, making it easy to carve out of it.

Loookk at mmyyy haiirr. Ittss beeiingg bblloown awway!!

Till the next post,
Chestnut
