Summary
[edit]
| Description |
العربية: البتراء أو البترا مدينة أثرية وتاريخية تقع في محافظة معان في جنوب المملكة الأردنية الهاشمية. تشتهر بعمارتها المنحوتة بالصخور ونظام قنوات جر المياه القديمة. أُطلق عليها قديمًا اسم "سلع"، كما سُميت بـ "المدينة الوردية" نسبةً لألوان صخورها الملتوية.
أُسست البتراء تقريبًا في عام 312 ق.م كعاصمة لمملكة الأنباط. وقد تبوأت مكانةً مرموقةً لسنوات طويلة، حيث كان لموقعها على طريق الحرير، والمتوسط لحضارات بلاد ما بين النهرين وفلسطين ومصر، دورًا كبيرًا جعل من دولة الأنباط تمسك بزمام التجارة بين حضارات هذه المناطق وسكانها. وتقع المدينة على منحدرات جبل المذبح، بين مجموعة من الجبال الصخرية الشاهقة، التي تُشكل الخاصرة الشمالية الغربية لشبه الجزيرة العربية، وتحديدًا وادي عربة، الممتد من البحر الميت وحتى خليج العقبة.
English: Petra is a famous archaeological site in Jordan's southwestern desert. Dating to around 300 B.C., it was the capital of the Nabatean Kingdom. Accessed via a narrow canyon called Al Siq, it contains tombs and temples carved into pink sandstone cliffs, earning its nickname, the "Rose City." Perhaps its most famous structure is 45m-high Al Khazneh, a temple with an ornate, Greek-style facade, and known as The Treasury. |
