Petra, Jordan

Described by the UNESCO as “one of the most precious cultural properties of man’s cultural heritage, Petra is an archeological site on the slope of Mount Hor. It is one of the new wonders of the world and is famous for its rock cut architecture.

約旦 佩特拉

被聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織稱(chēng)為“人類(lèi)文化遺產(chǎn)中最珍貴的文化財(cái)產(chǎn)”。佩特拉是在何珥山的斜坡上被考古學(xué)家發(fā)現(xiàn)的。這是世界上新的一個(gè)奇跡，并以其巖石掘進(jìn)的建筑而稱(chēng)著。

This site was kept hidden till 1812 when it was discovered by a Swiss explorer. It was said to have been prepared by God for the Jewish people. Petra once flourished under the Roman empire but a rapid decline began with the Arabian trade being taken elsewhere. Then an earthquake caused a lot of destruction. Tourists throng the place to get a glimpse of the ruins of this beautiful city.

該遺址一直被掩埋，一直到1812年才被一名瑞士的探險(xiǎn)者發(fā)現(xiàn)。據(jù)說(shuō)，這座建筑是上帝為猶太人建造的。佩特拉在羅馬帝國(guó)時(shí)代盛極一時(shí)，但由于阿拉伯的貿(mào)易中心的轉(zhuǎn)移到別處而迅速衰落。然后地震又帶來(lái)了巨大的破壞。旅游者蜂擁而至以一睹這座美麗城市的廢墟。
