Petra, Jordan (The Rose City) - The ancient Nabathean city carved in the rocks
The Treasury Building of the Rose City of Petra seen from the entrance.
Water troughs that funnel the rainwater down to the rose city -- entrance to the hidden city ...
Note the water troughs on both sides of the crevice
Water System troughs -- one side was for washing clothes, etc. and the other side was for fresh drinking water .... the troughts funneled the rainwater down the rocks and into the city
Up until 20 years ago when Petra was declared a World Heritage Site, people lived in the caves full time -- all have since been settled in nearby towns in govt housing
