Horses gallop by at the entrance to Petra We awoke bright and early to beat the crowds. Later that day, we were told that a horse ride was included in our entrance fee. As it turned out, we needed the extra time to walk anyway because we arrived at the Treasury too early. 43 Places. 101 Things To Do Around The World. In pictures: romantic travel destinations.
