How is it that a RUclipsr offers a more detailed and thorough explanation of Petra than any of the “professional” documentaries I’ve watched over the years? 🤔 Well done Sir!
I have heard of the Jordanian guides who help take people to Petra and camel safaris, such guides are known to be incredibly kind and friendly. This journey is high on my bucket list.
As someone said a you tuber did a better job than most professional documentarians in covering a subject. Also if English is your second language you would never know it. Your narration was so clear and you kept the pace so lively without the silly drama most documentaries are subject to. Keep up the good work. I’m a new subscriber as of today.
I have travelled to many of the sites that Manuel has evaluated but I am AMAZED by the information he adds. I especially appreciate the architectural facts he shares and the great music that accompanies his narratives. I am so thankful that I found these programs. They are wonderful.
I have just stumbled across your video and commentary. Thank you, Manuel, for sharing your knowledge and the excellent virtual tour. I cannot travel due to poor health and lack of wealth, but you have bridged the gap for me, and now I can enjoy the wonders of the ancient world from the comfort of my lounge room. The images are no longer static - you have brought them to life for me.
Well believe it or not there's quite a bit more, are entire High School went there, around 250 of us students went there, and in one of the buildings all 250 of us carved our names throughout the place, but for some reason the tour guides forget to show or mention this, I never understood why😏
Great video and easy to understand explanation , as a Jordanian citizen I thank you for taking the effort to show the importance of Petra and it's beauty
This is absolutely stunning. I love the broken pediment design and structure. As always, Manuel, I am so impressed with your work and the educational content of your work, as well. Thank you!
@Jimmy L Needham Hey Jimmy, the ‘Broken Pediment’ is a structural DESIGN which has been used for Millennia in architecture and in furniture. The headboard of my bed has a broken pediment design. Maybe before you insult people, you should do some research. You, sir, are the goon.
I have read nothing but we'll deserved and uplifting appraisals for your work. I'm not usually caught by historical remains rather by events from the past but you have deeply impressed me. Thank you.
There is no one today, on the face of this earth, that can even begin to replicate that kind of stone work. It is quite obvious our ancestors were a whole lot smarter than history gives them credit for being.
I will go one step further and say they were more than just smarter than we give them credit for. I will say that they are smarter than we are seeing that we can't replicate what they did.
Those tombs and monuments were built for the absolute elite of the era while their populations were slaving off in the fields. The money used to do so probably represented an obscenely high percentage of the local GDP. We should be very happy that developped countries have not reproduced this.
@@nekononiaow Le château de Versailles was financed by slaves working the sugar cane fields in Haiti. The building of the first locomotive was financed by slavers. Our cheap goods come from people being paid a 1$ dollar per day in Asia, South America and Africa. Modern civilization is built on exploitation.
Thanks so much for this video! I almost feel like I’m walking through it with you as you explain it. I had no idea it was so much bigger than the one famous building/tomb. I likely will never be able to visit it, but your video is the next best thing! Thank you so much.
Awesome documentary! Thank you for your hard work in putting this together. I don't think I'll ever get to Jordan to see this, so it is great to be able to stumble across this on RUclips.
How great is Petra. The Nabataean Kingdom is one of the oldest Arab kingdoms that extended in the northwest of the Arabian Peninsula and the south of the Levant to the Mediterranean coast, and trade routes flourished in it across the Arabian Peninsula. And a side note, King Aretas is the Greek pronunciation for Haritha, and my brother's name is Haritha
Though I visited Petra 40 years back,I was not told the history .You have explained with information which fills pleasure to me as I also visited there.
Petra is one of the best memories of my travels. Unfortunately, due to time constraint, we did not have a chance to see the other tombs far from the Treasury. It was a long, tiring walk to the Treasury but worth our time & effort. Thanks for showing us the vast complex of Petra.
Ditto I went on the Holy Land pilgrimage and spent less than 1 hour after we reached the Treasury and wander by foot further inland saw a bit. I have to come back and spend the whole day in Petra
Oh , my God !!!Wooow ! This is a really FASCINATING MIRACLE of Petra’s architecture in that monumental rock from that periof of human history !!!The approach to the city of Petra is so mysterious and very interesting !!AMAZING !!For me it’s a MASTERPIECE of the genius people of thst time !!!Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing such a human achievement with us 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️!
This is probably the best and most concise explanation of Petra. Better than National Geographic. Highly recommend this for people who want to learn more about Petra and the people who ruled it
you are the most perfect individual vloger in youtube i have ever seen....feels like i m watching bbc kind of documentry ...that voice that narrations..that shoot..that information...never ever tried to skip or fast forward your video till now..dont leave us ever sir,,,, your life time subs and fan from india....and please do come to india - aurangabad - verul ajintha caves - its one of the ancient heritage of ours...your one video is more than enough for that place to bring it to the worlds contact.... all the best stay safe sir.....
I loved visiting Petra. Didn’t understand the monastery and too hard to climb up there. So grateful for this video. The Jordanians are great people and this is one of the greatest places on earth to visit. Thanks for the memories! PS I am binge watching to catch up on these great videos
The Nabataeans and their sacred city of Petra was the subject of my 'Archaeology of the Bible' class term paper in my third year at University (1991), so it holds a special place in my heart. Thank you for the video tour of this fascinating ancient city, Manuel. ☺
Awesome place, have been 3 times, the first time we camped in Wadi Rum, then trekked through the desert and entered Petra at the top of the the mountain visiting the monastery first, then descending down through the valley of Petra right through to the treasury. After that we climbed up to High Places, a staggering view awaits those who do the climb. 😊
I can't see these images without hearing the theme music to Indiana Jones. Featured so prominently in 1989 Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Would love to visit.
Thank you Manuel for sharing this wonderful video about Petra. I was blessed to see it in 2013. It was one of the best memories of my travel’s to Israel .Don’t miss Petra, my admiration for all the people and the hard work of there creation , and thank you for this excellent video.
We were blessed and I can say lucky. Walked Petra with our own feet. Unbelievable but you have experience it for yourself. These were life CHANGING experiences in my life, to have experience THE GREATNESS OF GOD and HE created MANKIND to be able to build, restore. The experience and emotions can NEVER be expressed in ANY SPOKEN WORD. YOU HAVE TO WALK PETRA!!!!!! Thank RUclips for placing PETRA. For i have been trying to explain PETRA to my friends and colleagues. With DEARNESS i think about the colleagues that walked PETRA with me. We were from different countries, but we are only HUMAN RACE. JORDANIANS PEOPLE WITH BEAUTIFUL HEARTS. Thank you for HUMBLE hearts and great hospitality. RUclipsrs thanks once again. Brought back beautiful memories. 🇿🇦🇿🇦
I’ve never had a chance to visit. I had always thought they were ancient homes carved out of the rock. This was the first time I learned all these interesting details of Petra’s history. Ty do much! You did an excellent job
According to Revelations in the end time God is going to hide the remnant of Israel in the mountains of Petra,apparently there are bibles hidden in these mountains,
@@shillsmukute2538 Are you sure of that !? So you need to breakdown all these amazing treasures and start digging all over to find your imaginary bibles !.
This channel is truly a GEM not sure why u dont have millions of views. These videos are entertaining and filled with interesting information. Its just well done! Ty good sir :)
This is the best video about Petra that I have found so far. I already wanted to go there one day and maybe I'm weird but I love cemeteries so I'd love to go here even more now I've learnt its a big cemetery! Very cool place
I just came back from Petra, I wish I could have seen your video before visiting it, our tour guide was not even close to your clear explanation, great job!
Ten years ago I spent a full day in a guided tour to Petra but you brought some additional interesting information I didn´t get then. I appreciate your efforts to bring those info to us. Muchas gracias!
Thank you Manuel. From here I will have to do some of my own research. I have a background in history but I’ve never heard of the Nabateans. I have seen pictures of Petra and the main building but that was it. Thank you for a great documentary
Yes they discovered another level. But if you stand in front of the Treasury and look inside there is not much to see. Basically a shallow empty space. But standing in front you can look down and see the newly discovered level that is still being excavated. I was there in November 2018.
This was very interesting and fun to watch. Its speaks the many thousands people that lived out their days in these desert areas for such a long long time.
Thank you for showing more of the city than just the Treasury. I'm tired of people saying "this is Petra!" with a shot of that building as if it's the only part of the whole place worth looking at. The Treasury is awesome, but it shouldn't be considered the only wonder involved in the making of such a complicated place where such truly inspired designs for water storage and so many different types of construction are featured. There is a lot of genius going on in this place, some truly impressive accomplishments, and people always boil it down to the one structure, so again, thank you for showing how much more there is there. My brother got to go to Petra when he was in Jordan briefly in the Navy, and I'm still mad that he got to see it and I didn't LOL
Been there. There isnt anything inside but I suspect there's something more to that city. Petra is hige and only a small portion has been excavated. It was a wonderful trip. There's more to it than the Treasury though. There are Bedouins that watch over the valley on top of the cliffs.
@@theprinceoftides6836 those sculptures could be mainly from Africa, ie. People of janubia/Nubians or now of Morden day countries like Sudan, southern Egypt, people of Axum that modern day Ethiopians who have similar rock carvings, Eritreans and others Labourers from India. The Romans didn't do shit, most of the things were done by the black Africans before the mixed breads of western Europeans who metamorphosed to be Arabs...
@@khalednajada2514 Arabs???....as in Arabic????...as a language that didn't exist until 300 years after Petra had already been a client state of the Roman empire for 200 years????.....learn your history........avdat, mamshit, and shivta are nabbattean dwellings within Israel, and aren't that exemplary.....
One of the greatest sites I have ever visited! A must see, i reccomend 3 days, ones of which is getting a ride to Little Petra about 10 km away and walking to Petra via the monastery.
Of all the places and things I did in a long aviation career, this was definitely in my top 10. A little embarrassed that I initially new of it because of Indiana Jones. 😜😎
This is one of my bucket list to travel. Especially that I am working near Boarder israel. You really amaze me how you explain your vlog like when I watch you last night in your Egypt tour. That’s why I subscribe you even in the starting of the video. Good job and Godbless.
So beautiful and informative I have travelled to Petra in 2017 walked along the paths with no knowledge about it .you open my eyes so grateful I learn so much about that place in such in a short time .had was to share with my friend that has been there also thank alot
How in the hell does a child of 3 yrs old sleep and dreams of Petra 3 yrs ago I was watching a channel on tv and here comes a oh my gosh a most amazing piece of art and I felt so upset Petra was the structure in my dream I couldn't stop crying long story short how does a child of 3 even dream about something like that I'm a woman from USA so how do I dream of Petra and I didn't dream this one time many many times and have always so interest in ancient ruins from a young age just don't understand Thank ya for sharing this ✌❤
Welcome to Jordan @manuel Bravo am hoping you are having a good time if you still here, I expect you will upload other videos specially about Jerash, I like your videos and wish you all the best.
Thank you for sharing this FASCINATED document.i got so impressed with your explaination.So thoroughly and Detail, you must have a professionell level of this knowledge.I enjoy watching and learning too of the Ancient world,because they are so fascinated!! I am looking forward to watch your document, thank you .
I had the good fortune to visit Petra many years ago. If you find yourself in Israel or Jordan it's a must see place. Don't go in the summer though; it's brutally hot. Petra was an important caravan stop on trade routes across the region and died out because over time those routes changed leaving Petra without a reason for being
@@10cabe don't visit petra from israel it will cost you a lot, visit jordan and go to petra, there are many great places in jordan you should discover it.
What is your favorite ancient city?
Very good video, do you travel alone or friend/family?I would like to travel but I’m not sure if I should go alone😅
Angkor.
Troy. And I go there alone :-)

I never knew there was so much to Petra. Thank you for the great information 😀
My thought too.
It's the freedom. No confinement of educational establishments

Ive always wanted to go! This video really helped me as I knew next to nothing about Petra. wish you couldve gone inside the treasury though
@Ghost Ghost maybe safety concerns?
Yes they discovered another level. But if you stand in front of the Treasury and look inside there is not much to see. Basically a shallow empty space. But standing in front you can look down and see the newly discovered level that is still being excavated. I was there in November 2018.

This was very interesting and fun to watch. Its speaks the many thousands people that lived out their days in these desert areas for such a long long time.

@@khalednajada2514 Arabs???....as in Arabic????...as a language that didn't exist until 300 years after Petra had already been a client state of the Roman empire for 200 years????.....learn your history........avdat, mamshit, and shivta are nabbattean dwellings within Israel, and aren't that exemplary.....
One of the greatest sites I have ever visited! A must see, i reccomend 3 days, ones of which is getting a ride to Little Petra about 10 km away and walking to Petra via the monastery.

I had the good fortune to visit Petra many years ago. If you find yourself in Israel or Jordan it's a must see place. Don't go in the summer though; it's brutally hot. Petra was an important caravan stop on trade routes across the region and died out because over time those routes changed leaving Petra without a reason for being
And the taxes for using this passage were high
@@10cabe don't visit petra from israel it will cost you a lot, visit jordan and go to petra, there are many great places in jordan you should discover it.
