I'm a Jordanian living abroad , thank you for documenting and showing one of the beautiful places of my home country. I miss it so much , but the country is experiencing a lot of problems at the moment.
Exquisite country. I hope your problems are resolved quickly, I would be devastated to see it ruined by fighting or government. I've always visited ancient countries, I'm a history fan and Jordan always seemed safe for me to visit.
I visited Petra , and since I have had countless questions . This documentary is a stunner. Thank you, Jacques Vichet and everyone associated with this project! Your video is going to make me support RU-vid even more! One a personal note, I found the Jordanian people to be extremely gracious and hospitable. Especially the Bedouins, who invited my husband and I into their home at Petra site, to serve us tea and cigarettes. Will always remember this man, and his lovely wife and daughters. Even his donkey seems welcoming. Our host sent his daughter out to buy sugar for our tea
I wish it for you because it is beyond spectacular, beyond any expectations I had. Petra is worthy of all the accolades it gets. Four years later I still get shivers looking at my pictures and can't believe my luck!
I'm from Jordan. Been to Petra once. I was gobsmacked by its awe-inspiring facades and majestic sculptures. I hope our corrupt regime doesn't sell Petra to a French or German or Chinese company, like they've sold everything else we have.
It used to be if the French or German got a historic site, they would take the utmost care of it. But those nations are flooded with migrants, subjugated by zionist puppets, and too woke to think straight, so you never know what they may do these days.
I am from the UK, I visited Jordan in 1984 the same year our Queen visited and I though Amman and Petra was fantastic I have been all over the world but Jordan and Petra stay in my mind, I love History and Geography.
Beautiful place with lots and lots of interesting and amazing history. Was there in 2019 and would like to go back soon. The people are very honest and generous. I loved Wadi Mussa
Being a history buff from Australia we are so spoiled with history with readings and docs like this one of my mains are Egypt and Biblical archaeology and the impact on our modern day World that some of our young have succumbed to the here and now hopefully they take time to look at how we got here better get back to this great doc
I've visited it back in 2019 without knowing much about it and I'm so grateful I found those cheap tickets and been there because you can actually feel the vibrations and the magnitude of the place. It's really a holy place and deserves much more respect than what we can imagine. We have a lot to learn from these old civilizations. Watching this documentary now brings me good memmories and good reflections. Thank you!
Had the pleasure of visiting your beautiful country as part of the Holy Land tour in 2018. Unfortunately we could not visit Petra. Maybe some time in the future we will have the pleasure of doing so, God willing😊
I just came back from Petra and this documentary is super informative! I learnt a lot while traveling there and now watching this documentary is even more impressed by this wonder! I suggest that people should watch this documentary before they travel to Petra.
The Byzantine Romans took control of it, and there is a Byzantine church inside, but what happened after that and how it became deserted, no one knows.
Maravilloso el documental. Engrandese a RU-vid. Gracias... Sigan mostrando las maravillas del mundo antiguo. Falta mucho para descubrir del hombre antiguo. Los caballos continuan trabajando sin paga para el hombre actual Cado aparte. Cuando dejaremos a los animaltos tranquilos?
It's amazing your video is Best Documentary, so we can witness the history of Jordan, as knowledge and education for the current generation about the past, Iloveyou ❤️ keep you successful,Wasallam wartiko 💅
Hermoso documental tanta historia de los lugares de Jordania los habitantes eran muy inteligentes y diestros para trabajar la roca manualmente es admirable tanto construcciones tan de talladas con mucha arte 💯👍saludos desde 🇲🇽 ♥️
i did an overnight visit to Petra over a decade ago, spectacular fascinating place. Did the Wadi Run too, another experience. The documentary shows i missed very many interesting things on that short visit. Many thanks for this very interesting documentary.
Beautifull places!!...but it is heartbroken the way they treat the animals in Petra...the poor donkeys and horses are running up and down for the whole day transferring people from one side to the other without stopping. They also getting tired and thirsty, and I hope somebody will take it up with government...
Yes, they should only work 4hs and be rotated. I saw the same thing when I visited Santorini Greece. Poor donkeys going up the side of the steep mountain all day in the heat. So cruel.
@@louise7552 yes, I am from Soufh Africa, I visit Petra four times, and it was heartbroken to see that poor animals working so hard, and even when they slow down a bit, the boss of that animal hid them with a stick or rope, it is all about money...somebody must do something about this situation....
@@sandrapotgieter7488 maybe we can write to peta or the rspca or what ever they have there. My friends husband Omar is Jordanian, I'll ask him. He's really cool.
Oh I love some of the photographs of Patra that I have.. I can look at him with magnifying glasses and see all the stuff from an ancient civilization heaped up into big piles and petrified in two giant rocks of rubble
Hello, I am Mahdi from Iran, I am a radio announcer and Dublor. Because I saw that most of your videos and documentaries have subtitles in Farsi. That's why I wanted to cooperate with you in the context of narrating and converting them into Farsi so that Persian-speaking audiences in Iran and even Afghanistan, etc., can see these videos better and more. I am waiting for your answer.
My mind is completely blown away. Can you imagine this city at the height of its glory? Why don't we construct like this anymore? So what if it's expensive.
Places like this should be visited by at least 5 million people a year, but poor management and lack of vision by governments have kept this treasure away from the million of tourists seeking such wonderlands.
