Vincent Poon :: Petra By Night
 
An alternative and yet a magical way to explore the Siq at night. You begin walking along the Siq lighted up by hundreds of candles all the way to the Treasury, where you will be served with mint tea and some Bedouin performance. For 12 JD, the highlight was not on the performance itself but really was a chance to experience the tranquillity and darkness of walking in the dark, with only the candles and the stars with you.

It was quite an experience to walk the Siq at night, lit by candles and stars above you... everyone was quiet to enjoy the moment!
Really didn't know how I got this shot and what the subject was doing...
Finally, if you were lucky not to trip over during the entire Siq-walk in the dark, you will see the Treasury where everyone else was
Here everyone (who paid) gathered in front of the Treasury and listened to the host telling stories and also peformed, more like a bonfire gathering with candles instead
