개요
Petra is Jordan's most famous archaeological site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, hidden in the sandstone mountains near the town of Wadi Musa. Built more than two thousand years ago by the Nabataeans as their caravan capital, it is a vast city of tombs, temples and monuments carved directly into rose-coloured rock. Most visitors enter through the Siq, a narrow canyon that opens dramatically onto the Treasury, but the site stretches for kilometres and rewards a full day or more on foot. Beyond the famous facade you will find the Monastery high above the valley, Roman-era ruins, royal tombs and sweeping viewpoints. Petra is best explored slowly, with good shoes, water and an early start to beat the heat and the crowds. Evenings bring the candle-lit Petra by Night experience. It remains the anchor of any trip to southern Jordan.

Petra one-day entry ticket
1인당
JOD 50~90 · US$70~127
The one-day ticket is much cheaper for visitors staying at least one night in Jordan than for same-day visitors. If you are seeing other sites, the Jordan Pass usually works out better value.
Jordan Pass
1인당
JOD 70~80 · US$98~113
Bundles Petra entry with many other attractions and waives the tourist visa fee if you stay three or more nights. Buy it online before you arrive.
Short taxi ride within Wadi Musa
1회당
JOD 2~6 · US$3~8
Short hops around town are cheap. Agree the fare before getting in, as meters are rarely used.
Licensed guide inside Petra
그룹당
JOD 50~78 · US$70~110
Hire only official guides from the visitor centre. Prices are per group for a set route, so splitting the cost among several people is good value.
Mid-range restaurant meal
1인당
JOD 7~16 · US$10~22
Restaurants right at the site entrance charge more. Eat in Wadi Musa town for better prices and portions.
Bottled water at the site
1병당
JOD 1~2 · US$1~3
Water inside Petra costs several times the town price. Carry plenty from your hotel, especially in warm months.
Donkey ride to the Monastery
1회당
JOD 7~14 · US$10~20
Optional and negotiable. Agree the full price and destination first, and never feel pressured. Walking is free and often just as fast.
가격 확인——Petra one-day entry ticket
흔한 사기
Unlicensed guides
중간수법: Someone approaches you near the entrance or Treasury offering a tour or a shortcut, then demands a high fee afterwards.
피하는 법: Only hire guides with an official badge booked through the visitor centre, and agree the route and price in writing before starting.
Animal-ride pressure
중간수법: Horse, donkey or camel handlers offer a ride as 'included' or 'free', then demand a large tip or claim a much higher price at the end.
피하는 법: Confirm the exact price and destination before mounting, carry small change, and decline firmly if you are not interested.
Fake antiquities and coins
낮음수법: Vendors sell 'ancient' coins or artefacts claimed to be genuine Nabataean relics.
피하는 법: Assume all such items are modern replicas. Buying or exporting real antiquities is illegal, so treat them as souvenirs only.
Siq carriage overcharge
중간수법: Horse carriages through the Siq are pitched as included in the ticket, then drivers demand a heavy extra 'tip' at the Treasury.
피하는 법: Know that a nominal carriage is only for those with mobility needs and any extra is optional. Set a price first or simply walk.

방문하기 좋은 시기
3월–5월 및 10월–11월
Spring (March to May) and autumn (October to November) offer warm days and cool evenings, ideal for the long walks and climbs. Summer midday heat can be extreme, and winter can be cold with rare but dangerous flash floods.
안전
주의Summer temperatures can exceed 40C with little shade on the trails. Start early, carry more water than you think you need, and wear a hat and sunscreen.
경고The Siq is a narrow canyon that can flood suddenly during rain, mainly in winter and spring. Heed any closure or warning from staff and never enter during a storm.
주의Trails involve steep, uneven and sometimes slippery rock-cut steps with unfenced drops. Take your time on climbs like the Monastery and High Place, and turn back if tired.
숨은 명소
Climb the back trail to the viewpoint above the Treasury for a bird's-eye photo most visitors miss.
Walk to the Monastery in the late afternoon when the crowds thin and the stone turns golden.
Add Little Petra for carved dwellings and one of the region's few surviving painted Nabataean ceilings.
자주 묻는 질문
How many days do I need for Petra?
One full day covers the main highlights if you start early, but two days let you reach the Monastery, viewpoints and side trails without rushing.
Is the Treasury the whole site?
No. The Treasury is only the entrance reveal. Petra stretches for kilometres and includes tombs, a Roman street, temples and the Monastery high above the valley.
Should I buy the Jordan Pass?
If you are visiting other sites and staying three or more nights, the Jordan Pass usually saves money and waives the tourist visa fee. Buy it online before arrival.
Is Petra suitable for children or limited mobility?
The main path to the Treasury is manageable, but the wider site involves long distances, steps and steep climbs. Assisted options exist near the entrance but the far trails are demanding.
When does Petra by Night run?
It is held on select evenings each week and requires a separate ticket. Confirm the schedule locally, as nights and availability change seasonally.
