This is comfortable cottage in Little Petra, with hand made mattresses, covers, blankets, carpets, in luxury room built from red stones, in the middle of Little Petra, between cliffs and colored limestones, with us you have an amazing experience, specially night around a campfire in front of the room, and tells you about Bedouin life, history, culture and Bedouin stories, an experience you never forget
We are Bedouins of Petra. We were born in a Bedouin tent on the mountain heights above Petra, just like all the other Bedouins in the area. When we were a boys our family would often take our rest and relaxation in the caves of the ancient city of Petra . Petra was our playground as a children and our paramours place. We used to walk almost ten miles to school, and living in this openness made our minds open and our dreams infinite. When we finished our higher education we decided to become a travel agent, a job we had wanted to do all our life.
Little Petra (Arabic: البتراء الصغيرة‎‎, al-batrā aṣ-ṣaġïra), also known as Siq al-Barid (Arabic: سيق البريد‎‎, literally "the cold canyon") is an archaeological site located north of Petra and the town of Wadi Musa in the Ma'an Governorate of Jordan. Like Petra, it is a Nabataean site, with buildings carved into the walls of the sandstonecanyons. As its name suggests, it is much smaller, consisting of three wider open areas connected by a 450-metre (1,480 ft) canyon. It is part of the Petra Archeological Park, though accessed separately, and included in Petra's inscription as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is often visited by tourists in conjunction with Petra itself, since it is free and usually less crowded. Like Petra, it was probably built during the height of Nabataean influence during the 1st century C.E. While the purpose of some of the buildings is not clear, archaeologists believe that the whole complex was a suburb of Petra, the Nabatean capital, meant to house visiting traders on the Silk Road. After the decline of the Nabataeans, it fell vacant, used only by Bedouin nomads, for centuries. Along with neighboring Beidha, Little Petra was excavated in the later 20th
