Petra by Night happens on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays at 20:30. You meet outside the gates before walking into the Siq Canyon. The Siq will have been adorned by a countless number of lanterns marking the side of the path. You emerge in front of the Treasury, glowing against the backdrop of yet more lanterns. Local musicians play traditional Arabic instruments as you marvel at the sheer beauty of Petra’s most iconic facade.
