In their dreams, many people will say, “I want to hit the sacred roads”. Same with me. Without planning or thinking much, I decided to visit Jordan, and namely, the places where Moses was leading his people from Egypt to the promised land.
A small town, nothing unusual. But if you go down to the ancient city and walk its roads, you will be struck by abundant structures carved in rock. These roads have seen merchants from China, India, southern Arab countries, Syria, Greece, and Rome. Magnificent! But the grander thing is the colour of the rock and its foliation.
I was like in an Indiana Jones movie – all I had to do is wait for shots and chase. I had no contacts in Petra. The other never approached me. But I did catch some outside energy. Everything is so calm! Hurry up home!
