Three camels sit and stand in front of the Treasury or "Al-Khazneh" in Petra, Jordan.
The "Treasury" or "Al-Khazneh" is one of the most elaborate temples in the ancient Arab Nabatean Kingdom of Petra. It was originally built by the Arab Nabataeans as a mausoleum and crypt at the beginning of the 1st century AD and was carved out of a sandstone rock face. It is a popular tourist attraction in Jordan and has appeared in many Hollywood movies, most notably Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.
