Al-Khazneh
Al-Khazneh, also known as the Treasury, is a famous rock-cut structure in the ancient city of Petra, Jordan. Carved directly into the rose-red cliffs, it features elaborate classical architecture with columns, sculptures, and a grand façade. Built around the 1st century AD by the Nabataeans, it likely served as a tomb or treasury. Its intricate design and impressive scale make it a symbol of Petra's engineering skill and artistic tradition. Today, Al-Khazneh is a major archaeological site and a UNESCO World Heritage site, attracting visitors from around the world.
