Roman ruins - 'Qasr al-Bint', temple, and colonnaded street.
This hill is more like a pile of Roman and Nabatean rubble and broken pottery.
Tool marks inside a tomb.
This is one of the few buildings that is not a tomb - it is a temple, called the 'Garden Temple'.
A lion carved into the side of the path.
This tomb is actually Roman, but blends in well with the Nabatean style.
This was the area where the most important sacrifices were made, in the presence of the Royal family. 
These carvings are representations of obelisks to symbolise people related to someone in the tomb who are buried outside Petra.
Many of the tombs are decorated with these ziggurat shapes.
Inside the triclenium.
A triclenium - a dining room for having memorial feasts for the dead.
