The buildings are carved out of the rock face of this red sandstone giving it the name of 'The Rose Gold City or Red Rose City.

Watercolor illustration for "A Photographer's First Visit to Petra" by Harry Fenn, 1885. Rock formation on Jabal Al-Madbah mountain, overlooking Petra, in Jordan

ROCK BOTTOM POEM: Amidst shadows' shroud, where hope seems lost, At rock bottom's brink, we bear the cost. Embracing anguish, with valor held tight, Tasting tears of sorrow, through darkest night. Stripped of shields, vulnerabilities laid bare, Yet within the darkness, resilience flares. A weave of life's encounters, intertwined, Frequency and fervor, soul's strength bind.
