Petra in Jordan
"Hidden by desert mountains, Petra was the Nabataean capital carved into rose-red sandstone around the 1st century BCE, thriving on incense trade and ingenious water systems. The Al-Khazneh reveal through a narrow Siq is unforgettable. This scene captures Hellenistic columns and stratified cliffs. Use dusty pinks, sandstone oranges, and deep canyon shadows, leaving white highlights so the rock seems to radiate desert heat."
