<span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Petra is believed to have been settled as early as 9,000 BC, and it was possibly established in the 4th century BC as the capital city of the Nabataean Kingdom. ... The earliest historical reference to Petra was an attack to the city ordered by Antigonus I in 312 BC recorded by various Greek historians.</span>

<span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Qasr Kharana, sometimes Qasr al-Harrana, Qasr al-Kharanah, Kharaneh or Hraneh, is one of the best-known of the desert castles located in present-day eastern Jordan, about 60 kilometres east of Amman and relatively close to the border with Saudi Arabia.</span>

<div>The enormous Luxor Temple was one of the great constructions of the New Kingdom (dating from the 14th century BC) dedicated to the god Amun. It was known as the “Southern Sanctuary” and was the site of ceremonies aimed at encouraging the life-giving Nile floods.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Once through the processional Avenue of Sphinxes you come to the First Pylon, which announces the phenomenal scale of the stonework here: statues, columns and obelisks all compete with each other in a race to the sky.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ensuing civilizations have also left their marks: there’s a shrine erected by Alexander the Great, Roman wall frescoes as well as a 14th century AD mosque, ensuring this remains a place of worship in the present day.</div>

<div>The largest of Luxor’s temples, Karnak was one of the most sacred sites in ancient Egypt. It marked the ascendancy of Thebes (present day Luxor) as the capital of the New Kingdom, with construction beginning in the 16th century BC. Most subsequent rulers tinkered with the complex so it represents a great crash course in different pharaonic styles.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The major site here is the Temple of Amon, the largest place of worship ever constructed. There the Great Hypostyle Hall, which was once roofed, dwarfs visitors with its dozens of colossal columns reaching 25 yards (23 meters) into the sky.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Other highlights include the serene sacred lake, gargantuan statues of rulers and gods, as well as the best selection of obelisks in Egypt.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Jordan's desert castles, beautiful examples of both early Islamic art and architecture, stand testament to a fascinating era in the country's rich history. Their fine mosaics, frescoes, stone and stucco carvings and illustrations, inspired by the best in Persian and Graeco-Roman traditions, tell countless stories of the life as it was during the 8th century. Called castles because of their imposing stature, the desert complexes actually served various purposes as caravan stations, agriculture and trade centers, resort pavilions and outposts that helped distant rulers forge ties with local Bedouins. Several of these preserved compounds, all of which are clustered to the east and south of Amman.</span></div><div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">The Umayyads erected a number of characteristic palaces, some in the cities, but mostly in the semi-arid regions, and some along important trading routes. The castles were built roughly between 660 and 750 under the Umayyad Caliphate, which had made Damascus, now in Syria, their new capital in 661. After the Abbasid Revolution of 750, the capital moved to the newly-built Baghdad and some of the buildings were never completed.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">The typical desert castle is more than a single residence; rather it is a compound of various building including a substantial main residence along with other buildings such as a hammam (bath-house), storage areas and other agrarian structures and possibly a mosque, all within a large enclosure. Desert castles are typically situated near a wadi or seasonal water course.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">The inner part of the main residence typically consists of two-stores, arranged around a central courtyard. The main residence is often richly ornamented with mosaics, frescoes and stucco reliefs.</span></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;"><br></span></div><div style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Archaeologists have investigated the role of these desert castles, with the traditional view that they served as country estates or hunting lodges for the use of aristocratic families during the winter season. However, recent scholarship has suggested a much greater diversity of roles, including as agricultural estates or military forts. The complex at Qasr al-Hayr al-Gharbi (Syria), for example, sits within a vast agricultural estate and the buildings include structures associated with the production of olive oil.</span></div></div>

<p style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Petra Archaeological Site. The magnificent ruins of ancient Petra occupy a high plateau that rises out of Wadi Mousa, the Valley of Moses, in southwestern Jordan. In 300 B.C., Nabataean invaders captured the city of Petra, which had been the capital of the Edomite Kingdom, securing their hold on the region.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify; "><span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">Petra is half-built, half-carved into the rock, and is surrounded by mountains riddled with passages and gorges. It is one of the world's most famous archaeological sites, where ancient Eastern traditions blend with Hellenistic architecture.</span><br></p>

<div>Dedicated to the Virgin Mary, the Hanging Church, which is still in use, is called the Hanging or Suspended Church as it is built on top of the Water Gate of Roman Babylon. Steep stairs lead from the forecourt to a 19th -century façade topped by twin bell towers. Beyond is a small inner courtyard, usually filled with sellers of taped liturgies and videos of the Coptic pope, Shenouda III.</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The interior of this 9th-century (some say 7th-century) church, renovated many times throughout the centuries, has three barrel-vaulted, wooden-roofed aisles. Ivory-inlaid screens hide the three haikal s (altar areas), but in front of them, raised on 13 slender pillars that represent Christ and his disciples, is a fine pulpit used only on Palm Sunday. One of the pillars, darker than the rest, is said to symbolize Judas. In the baptistry, off to the right, a panel has been cut out of the floor revealing the Water Gate below. From here there is a good view of one of the gate's twin towers.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify; ">From your vantage point on the felucca, you will see Agha Khan Mausoleum, arranged on the head of a slope, telling a heavenly perspective on the Aswan region. On the West Bank, the forsaken slope is spotted with the Tombs of the Nobles which your certified Egyptology guide will give a concise history of as you sail by. Your felucca ride to Kitchener Island takes around 30 minutes, contingent upon wind speed and Nile flows and on appearance, your guide will go with you to Aswan Botanic Gardens.&nbsp;</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Visit the little herbal gallery before walking around the serene nurseries which are home to numerous colorful types of plants and trees imported from all around the globe. The Aswan Botanic Gardens are a calm and tranquil desert spring from the hurrying around of ordinary Egyptian life, and youthful couples and families from Aswan frequently go through their day getting a charge out of the island. Coming back to your felucca you will come back to Aswan's East Bank, riding the flows and winds on a loosening up sail with the aptitude and information on your nearby felucca skipper.</div><div style="text-align: justify; "><br></div>

Experience the magnificent excursions to visit Philae Temple, the Unfinished Obelisk, and&nbsp; Aswan High Dam (the latter dating back to 1960). First stop of the day will be a visit the Philae Temple which was dedicated to the Goddess Isis, this Temple was dismantled and reconstructed on Agilika Island after Aswan Dam was constructed. Continue your tour to visit the Unfinished Obelisk which belonged to Queen Hatshepsut. This Obelisk weighs about 1200 tons and is approximately 42m in height. Finally ending with a visit to the Aswan High Dam which was constructed in 1960 and completed in 1970. Its main function is to protect Egypt from the annual floods as well as providing storage of water for agriculture.

<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Make your way to Abu Simbel to see the Great Temple of Ramses II and the temple of Queen Nefertari, both discovered in 1813 when they were almost completely covered with sand. Learn how they were moved in 1960 with the help of the government of Egypt and UNESCO to avoid the rising waters of the River Nile.</span></div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>See the mural depicting the famous victory by Ramses II at the Battle of Qadesh and admire the Small Temple that he built for his favorite wife, Queen Nefertari. Marvel at the rock-cut sanctuary and its amazing bas reliefs before returning to Aswan to get dropped off at your hotel.</div>

This was our first trip at abroad, we were having lots of questions with us how will be the company, will get Jain food and many more but with flamingo the answers was yes we got best company and excellent food all over the trip. We didn't only get Jain food but we got full Gujarati dish "Shikhand Puri", "Pani Puri", "Puran Puri", and many Indian dishes, it was really very surprising for us. The hotels provide by them for stay were also so good. The tour manager Devarshi Mam itself was so supportive. We never realized that tour manager is with us she was like our family member.

Mr. Hemang Patel

South Africa so well organised and memorable

<div>With flamingo tours, it was our 1st trip which is made a memorable one. Our tour manager Mr. kushal shah is just perfect guide.</div>
<div>On the very first day <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mr. Kushal shah</span> wanted us to have a great bonding amongst each other so that we get the best experience possible. He always tried to serve the best food and at the proper time. The thing that was best in him was that he always shared some or the other things related to the place we were visiting in an interesting manner. Mr kushal shah tried to give information about the place in an easy language understoodable by every participant and never meant to behave partial with anyone. A negative or say a sad point&nbsp; was that the Orlando hotel which was felt comparatively poor quality. We were given quality shopping time and he also enlisted what activities are to be done in parks that are the best in that particular part. It was overall a very good and unforgettable experience.&nbsp;</div>
<div>At last would say that hats off to the tour manager<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Mr. kushal shah.</span></div>
