About the destination: The legendary "Pink City, in the 6th century, was the capital of the ancient Nabatean kingdom known in the southern Kingdom of Jordan, and due to its fabulous ruins, Petra was recognized as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1985. The kingdom was absorbed by the Roman Empire in the year 106 and the Romans continued to expand the city.After the conquest of the Middle East by Saladin in 1189, Petra was abandoned.The ruins remained hidden to most of the world until the Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt , disguised as an Arab scholar, infiltrated the city occupied by the Bedouins in 1812.

About the destination: People have been living in Rum for thousands of years, struggling to survive in its harsh environment. They've been hunters, pastoralists, farmers and traders, as Rum is near national borders. Even the famous Nabateans once lived in Rum, leaving behind several structures, including a temple. Local folk gained notoriety more recently when they joined the Arab revolt forces under the leadership of King Faisal and fought alongside Lawrence of Arabia during the Arab Revolt (1917/18) against the occupying Turkish and German armies. Lawrence himself makes many references to Wadi Rum in his book ‘The Seven Pillars of Wisdom’, a title seemingly inspired by one of Rum’s imposing mountains. The exploits of Lawrence have become part of local folklore, and some popular tourist sites are named after him, although whether he used these exact sites is up for debate. Nearly all the people living in and around Wadi Rum today are of Bedouin origin and, until recently, led nomadic lives, relying on their goat herds. They are resourceful, hospitable people who are largely responsible for developing Wadi Rum as a tourist destination. Recognising the unique natural and cultural history of Wadi Rum and the vital importance of tourism to the local economy, the government of Jordan declared Wadi Rum a protected area in 1998. With support from the World Bank they commissioned the Royal Society for the Conservation of Nature, a national NGO, to prepare a conservation plan and build a team of local people to manage the area. This team is now under the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority and is pioneering ways to restore and safeguard Rum’s sensitive desert habitats from ever-increasing human pressure.
