The back road to Petra is unknown to most tourists.
Montreal is a Crusader castle on the eastern side of the Arabah, perched on the side of a rocky, conical mountain, looking out over fruit trees below. The ruins, called Shoubak or Shawbak in Arabic, are located in modern town of Shoubak in Jordan.
This was a crusader castle originally, but it was destroyed about 70 years after being built. Montreal castle finally fell to the famous Saladin after a two year siege, and most of what remains today was built by Mameluks.

Wadi Rum is a protected desert wilderness in southern Jordan almost 300 Km South of Amman city (Capital of Jordan). It features dramatic sandstone mountains and Natural Arches. Many prehistoric inscriptions and carvings line rocky caverns and steep chasms. The natural water source of Lawrence’s Spring is named after British Lieutenant Lawrence of Arabia, who allegedly washed there.
Wadi Rum in Jordan was used for filming the external scenes as the surface of Planet Mars in the Hollywood movie (The Martian) and many other movies.

Acadia National Park is mostly located on Mount Desert Island, the largest island off the coast of Maine. It is rich in coastal scenery. With a record of 338 bird species encountered, Acadia National Park is considered one of the premier bird-watching areas in the country. www.nps.gov/acad/learn/nature/birds.htm
The Jordan Pond Gatehouse and its counterpart, Brown Mountain Gatehouse, guard the entrance to Acadia's historic carriage roads with the intention of preventing automobiles from entering. In 1931, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. commissioned New York architect Grosvenor Atterbury in association with John Thompkins to design the elaborate gatehouses and gatekeepers' residences. Attenbury attempted in the design to recall the island's colonial heritage, choosing a highly picturesque style reminiscent of the provincial architecture of the Le Puis district in France. After their completion in 1932, Rockefeller donated both gatehouses to Acadia National Park. The lodges were to house the respective gatekeepers. Construction of the two gate lodges on Mount Desert Island provided many local men a job during the depression.

Petra Jordan

It is not known precisely when Petra was built, but the city began to prosper as the capital of the Nabataean Empire from the 1st century BC, which grew rich through trade in frankincense, myrrh, and spices.
On December 6, 1985, Petra was designated a World Heritage Site,, also Petra was chosen by the Smithsonian Magazine as one of the 28 places you should visit them before you die.

(wikipedia) ll fiume Giordano nasce dal Monte Hermon (2700 m), sul confine libano-siriano, è lungo 320 km ed attraversa Libano, Siria, Giordania, Israele e Palestina. Nasce dalla congiunzione dei fiumi Hasbani, Banyas e Dan.
Raggiunge il Lago di Tiberiade (o di Genezareth, biblico Mare di Galilea) e sfocia nel Mar Morto, a 397 m circa sotto il livello del mare, percorrendo la vallata del Gohr, scorrendo in una fossa tettonica collegabile al sistema di fosse dell'Africa orientale.
Il fiume Yarmuk è il suo più importante tributario.
La sua portata d'acqua è molto diminuita in questi anni, a causa dello sfruttamento delle acque (sue e dello Yarmuk). Mediamente porta alla foce nel Mar Morto meno di 30 metri cubi al secondo, con piene che, tuttavia, possono superare i 300 metri cubi al secondo. Questa drastica diminuzione potrà avere gravi conseguenze sul Mar Morto.
Per i Cristiani è un fiume molto importante poiché vi fu battezzato Gesù, viene spesso menzionato nell'Antico e nel Nuovo Testamento; è meta di numerosi pellegrinaggi.

Meet Giovanni - he's from the same site as the last dog I drew (Harbie, from Bosnia). This dog is from Jordan though - they rescue from several different countries. Giovanni is quite cute too but at 40kg (more than two Linas!)he's bigger than he looks in my drawing!

Well finally haha. I’ve seen several similar shots out there but I don’t care. I finally got to see Neowise with a fairly clear sky. Brought my wife and a couple of kids along on a round the pond midnight trek and they proved to be great cloud repellant. Also nice to have the company when the loons started yelling.
I don’t think a description is needed. There’s the Bubbles. There’s the comet!
First image in a while, going back through my albums to this one a couple years ago when i visited on of the 7 Wonders of the World, Petra in Jordan. An amazing place!

Absolutely fascinating, the city of Petra was the capital of the kingdom of the Nabataeans, who made it prosper thanks to its location on the route of the caravans that carried incense, spices and other luxury products between Egypt, Syria, Arabia and the south of the Mediterranean.

Early Morning on Jordan Pond.
The sun is just beginning to rise over a placid Jordan Pond in Acadia National Park on a beautiful cool morning. The fall colors are giving one last gasp of color before changing over for the season. At the far end of the pond the Bubbles can be seen overlooking the oligotrophic tarn. Oligotrophic tarn is the classification given to Jordan Pond due to its lack of nutrients for aquatic life, as well as its deep, crystal clear, waters. Jordan Pond is one of the iconic Acadia National Park views. The Bubbles have been photographed over and over again from this locale. It's not hard to see why this spot is so beloved in the park. The mountain peaks of Pemetic to the right, and Penobscot to the left, provide a natural frame to the North and South Bubbles at the head of the pond. Jordan Pond is a distinct feature in Acadia, and well worth photographing. The prior evening we hiked the Bubbles for sunset, and I can't wait to share those photos soon.
Thanks for looking and enjoy!
