Even so, it still narrows slightly before reaching a hidden plateau high above the impressive chasm of Wadi Siyyagh.  Just beyond, carved into the cliff face, โ€˜The Monasteryโ€™ suddenly comes into view, where there is a Bedouin cafรฉ for refreshments if you would like.  Nabataean steps then lead down into ancient Petra.

After floating, trying out the โ€œmagicalโ€ Dead Sea mud and soaking up some sun, we will head back to the capital. Overnight at a hotel in Amman.
