| Al Siq | |
| The Siq is the main entrance to the ancient Nabatean city of Petra in southern Jordan. Also known as Siqit, it is a dark, narrow (at some points no more than 3 meters wide) and winding gorge about 1.2 km long, ending at Petra's most magnificent ruins, Al-Khazneh (Treasury). A wide valley outside leading to the Siq is known as Bab as-Sīq (Gateway to the Siq). | |
