【约旦】谜一样的古城 · 佩特拉

佩特拉古城被评为世界新七大奇迹实至名归。它不仅有着美丽的色彩，还有谜一样的传奇故事。                      约旦本身就充满了阿拉伯神秘的色彩，而佩特拉古城正是位于它南部沙漠，海拔约有1000米的高山峡谷中。    古城几乎是在岩石上雕凿而成的，岩石带有珊瑚宝石般的微红色调，在阳光的照射下，呈现出绝美的颜色。     因此佩特拉古城又被称为”玫瑰古城“。                                                                                                      ----                                                                                                                                                              佩特拉曾是纳巴特人（古代阿拉伯部落）的王国首都。                                                                                   它虽然“美丽神奇，却缺少文字。也许该有的文字还在哪个没被发现的石窟中藏着。”                                    后人只能根据考古发现来分析，纳巴特人曾是游牧的阿拉伯人，大约于公元前五世纪从北方来到这里，并建立了厄多姆王国。他们来到后，首先寻找并发现水源，兴修水利；建造房屋和客栈；发展种植业，手工业（制陶），晒盐；生产香料（没药和乳香）；此时这里很是热闹，过往的商队在曲折的山道里进进出出，把它当作驿站。   纳巴特人为此设立了镖局，并有了自己的流通货币。公元前一世纪佩拉特真可谓极尽繁荣。                          ----                                                                                                                                                               公元一0六年罗马人占领了这里，并深深地打上了罗马的印记。                                                                          从公元三世纪起，因红海贸易的兴起代替了陆上商路，佩特拉开始衰落，渐渐消失在历史的长河中。               只剩下雕凿精美的古城遗址，与清风明月为伴。                                                                                                直到1812年瑞士的旅行家几经周折才找到它。                                                                                                 也许正是因为纳巴特人缺少文字，才使古城犹如谜团一样，等待着后人去探寻和破解。

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        这是本地导游小白，他可是地道的中国人哦。我们现在就跟随小白走进古城吧！

谜团萦绕的古城遗址令来到这里的人惊叹不已。                                                                                             一是惊叹这里的自然条件。在茫茫沙漠中伫立着的海拔约1000米的高山峡谷中，窄窄的神秘蛇道通向一个相对较宽阔的谷地，并有水源，真是一座天然的城池。也不得不佩服纳巴特人的眼光。                                              二是惊叹这里的岩石，各种形状的岩石分布在峡谷之中，不仅呈现出珊瑚般的微红色，还有橘色，黄色，紫色，暗绿色等颜色，犹如一座天然的岩石博物馆。不得不佩服大自然的鬼斧神工。                                                 三是惊叹这里的建筑。纳巴特人依山崖，开山凿石建起的佩特拉古城，是建筑史上的一个奇迹。纳巴特人把无与伦比的艺术雕刻在岩石上，也留给了后人。不得不佩服纳巴特人的智慧和创造力。

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              这不禁让人想起史前猿人的居所


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        这是进入佩特拉古城的入口


                                                                                                                                                                       通往佩特拉的必经之路，是一条被称为蛇道的长约1·5公里的狭长甬道。                                                          正因为它狭窄，为我们遮住了部分阳光，要知道当日的最高温度是46度啊！


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              奇山怪石耸立

                                                                                                                                                                                                                两个巨大的岩体相接，这种感觉是不是很奇妙

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 大自然的鬼斧神工，具有很强的视觉冲击力

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              导游小白在和游人演示纳巴特人的结婚仪式，男左女右，主持在中间


当我们快走到这条岩隙时，小白让我们停下脚步靠身后的岩体站好，                                                               然后闭上眼晴向前三步走，等他数到三时同时向右看。                                                                                     只听见大家异口同声地喊：哇！太壮观了！

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         岩隙中透出了奢华的建筑与光芒

                                                                                                                                                                       走出窄窄的蛇道眼前一片辉煌，有种豁然开朗的感觉。                                                                                     阳光下一座依山雕凿的巨大罗马式殿堂矗立在面前。                                                                                      我们屏住呼吸，睁大眼晴，此时带给我们的只有震撼和惊叹！



                                                                                                                                                                                                         而这座殿堂实际上是一座藏宝库


                                                                                                                                                                                              面对这座巨大奢华的藏宝库，自觉渺小----

这是佩特拉戏场前的小广场，由于天太热，我们就此止步，很遗憾。                                                               整个古城到此只走了三分之一，如果想全部走完的话，我估计怎么也得两天吧。

佩特拉古城被评为世界新七大奇迹实至名归。它不仅有着美丽的色彩，还有谜一样的传奇故事。                      约旦本身就充满了阿拉伯神秘的色彩，而佩特拉古城正是位于它南部沙漠，海拔约有1000米的高山峡谷中。    古城几乎是在岩石上雕凿而成的，岩石带有珊瑚宝石般的微红色调，在阳光的照射下，呈现出绝美的颜色。     因此佩特拉古城又被称为”玫瑰古城“。                                                                                                      ----                                                                                                                                                              佩特拉曾是纳巴特人（古代阿拉伯部落）的王国首都。                                                                                   它虽然“美丽神奇，却缺少文字。也许该有的文字还在哪个没被发现的石窟中藏着。”                                    后人只能根据考古发现来分析，纳巴特人曾是游牧的阿拉伯人，大约于公元前五世纪从北方来到这里，并建立了厄多姆王国。他们来到后，首先寻找并发现水源，兴修水利；建造房屋和客栈；发展种植业，手工业（制陶），晒盐；生产香料（没药和乳香）；此时这里很是热闹，过往的商队在曲折的山道里进进出出，把它当作驿站。   纳巴特人为此设立了镖局，并有了自己的流通货币。公元前一世纪佩拉特真可谓极尽繁荣。                          ----                                                                                                                                                               公元一0六年罗马人占领了这里，并深深地打上了罗马的印记。                                                                          从公元三世纪起，因红海贸易的兴起代替了陆上商路，佩特拉开始衰落，渐渐消失在历史的长河中。               只剩下雕凿精美的古城遗址，与清风明月为伴。                                                                                                直到1812年瑞士的旅行家几经周折才找到它。                                                                                                 也许正是因为纳巴特人缺少文字，才使古城犹如谜团一样，等待着后人去探寻和破解。

谜团萦绕的古城遗址令来到这里的人惊叹不已。                                                                                             一是惊叹这里的自然条件。在茫茫沙漠中伫立着的海拔约1000米的高山峡谷中，窄窄的神秘蛇道通向一个相对较宽阔的谷地，并有水源，真是一座天然的城池。也不得不佩服纳巴特人的眼光。                                              二是惊叹这里的岩石，各种形状的岩石分布在峡谷之中，不仅呈现出珊瑚般的微红色，还有橘色，黄色，紫色，暗绿色等颜色，犹如一座天然的岩石博物馆。不得不佩服大自然的鬼斧神工。                                                 三是惊叹这里的建筑。纳巴特人依山崖，开山凿石建起的佩特拉古城，是建筑史上的一个奇迹。纳巴特人把无与伦比的艺术雕刻在岩石上，也留给了后人。不得不佩服纳巴特人的智慧和创造力。

                                                                                                                                                                       通往佩特拉的必经之路，是一条被称为蛇道的长约1·5公里的狭长甬道。                                                          正因为它狭窄，为我们遮住了部分阳光，要知道当日的最高温度是46度啊！


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              奇山怪石耸立

                                                                                                                                                                                                                两个巨大的岩体相接，这种感觉是不是很奇妙

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 大自然的鬼斧神工，具有很强的视觉冲击力


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             岩石呈现出各种不同的形状和色彩

                                                                                                                                                                     
     


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    代表纳巴特杒莎拉神的大石块

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          沿着窄窄的蛇道继续前进

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 纳巴特人修建的水渠

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  纳巴特人雕刻的人身



                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 仿佛图腾般的岩石下边雕刻着纳巴特人供奉神明的神龛

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              导游小白在和游人演示纳巴特人的结婚仪式，男左女右，主持在中间


当我们快走到这条岩隙时，小白让我们停下脚步靠身后的岩体站好，                                                               然后闭上眼晴向前三步走，等他数到三时同时向右看。                                                                                     只听见大家异口同声地喊：哇！太壮观了！

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         岩隙中透出了奢华的建筑与光芒

                                                                                                                                                                       走出窄窄的蛇道眼前一片辉煌，有种豁然开朗的感觉。                                                                                     阳光下一座依山雕凿的巨大罗马式殿堂矗立在面前。                                                                                      我们屏住呼吸，睁大眼晴，此时带给我们的只有震撼和惊叹！



                                                                                                                                                                                                         而这座殿堂实际上是一座藏宝库


                                                                                                                                                                                              面对这座巨大奢华的藏宝库，自觉渺小----                                                                                                                                                  

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    这里是纳巴特人的门面街

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                门面街由藏宝库广场向前延伸

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        门面街上的雕刻

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   这里至今也是人来人往

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       古城内有花树点缀，色彩更加丰富


                                                                                                                                                                                                                      你如果累了，可以骑马  骑驴  骑骆驼



这是佩特拉戏场前的小广场，由于天太热，我们就此止步，很遗憾。                                                               整个古城到此只走了三分之一，如果想全部走完的话，我估计怎么也得两天吧。


                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  佩特拉戏场旁有一座贵族墓群

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  可爱的萌萌的骆驼

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     走出古城参观一下博物馆吧，会对佩特拉有更深的了解

                                                                                                                                                                        （当然每个人的审美观念不同。但个人认为，只佩特拉古城一处，就值得来约旦）                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         （谢谢浏览   待续）
