Bubble Tent with Jacuzzi: An Oasis in the Desert
📍Bubble Luxotel Petra: Little Petra, Al-Baydha Petra, Jordan
▫️The entrance has double doors. You need to close the first door properly before opening the second one to prevent the bubble from collapsing.
▫️The best part of this accommodation is that you can lie in bed and gaze at the stars in the desert.
▫️Jordan's autumn and winter can be quite cold, making it a unique experience to enjoy a jacuzzi in the desert during these seasons.
▫️During the day, the strong sunlight is blocked by shades, and at night, the shades are removed so you can look outside from anywhere in the room. All rooms face the same direction, and the back of the rooms is opaque for privacy.
▫️The bathroom is located behind the sink area, and it seems there was no separate door.
▫️You might encounter some cats along the way.
▫️It's also recommended to visit Little Petra nearby. It's less crowded than Petra and has a lot to see.
Thinking now... Did I really take so few photos of such a beautiful place? 🤭
Petra Jordan , a very unique destination.
I grew up watching it in many movies…
Indiana Jones , transformer …
But seeing it with ur own very eyes is totally different.
What’s can I say it’s worth just to travel thousand of miles just to be there to withness this amazing ancient architecture.
Well going tru the whole place really need 2-3 days and lots of physical fitness and stamina though. ( nothing more than 3-4 days )
I choose Petra bubble as my accommodation , is not the nearest to the historical entrance actually is abit far approximately 10mins drive distance but I simply love the photo opportunity and the feeling of soaking in the horizon after a long walking day at the site .

Shobak Castle: A Timeless Monument in Jordan
Located along the famous King’s Highway, perched atop a mountain, the Shobak Castle is a testament to Jordan's rich history. Built in 1115 under the rule of King Baldwin I, this castle is a striking monument in the desert, making visitors feel a world away from home
The castle was built as a form of defense and withstood many battles until it was defeated in 1189 by the first sultan of Egypt and Syria. In the 14th Century, the castle was taken over by the Mamluks, Muslim soldiers.
The castle grounds are home to churches, historic ruins, and a secret passageway that leads to a charming spring. The castle also boasts a watchtower, catacombs, and a number of Christian carvings and Islamic tablets. Despite being in ruins, Shobak Castle has been well preserved and visitors will find some interesting artifacts.

Lost ancient city, rose desert | Wear a long skirt and go to Jordan
Seven wonders of the world, Mars on Earth.
The lonely ancient city, crossing the desert of a thousand years;
The amazing Dead Sea, tracing the source of faith.
When going to Jordan, remember to bring a long skirt that drags on the ground, swaying in the wind and showing off your grace in the rose desert.
Jordan offers visa on arrival and is a relatively safe country in the Middle East with friendly relations with China. Spring and autumn are the peak tourist seasons.
Must-visit spot:
📍Petra Ancient City
The ancient city is very large. If time allows, at least 2-3 days should be arranged for hiking and taking photos. Climb to the mountaintop and overlook the Kazni Temple, or pass through the canyon and peek into the Rose City through the cracks.
📍Dead Sea
Jordan has the best vacation environment among the countries around the Dead Sea. You can stay there for a night, arrange your time freely, and take a beautiful photo of reading while floating.
📍Vadhiram
Also known as Moon Valley. But it actually looks more like the surface of Mars and is a filming location for many science fiction movies. Here you can experience the must-try desert bubble hotel in this lifetime.
In addition, the capital Amman is also a must-visit place not to be missed. If time allows, there are also Aqaba on the shores of the Red Sea and Jerash, the city of Rome. If you are fascinated by the mysterious Middle East, then you must not miss Jordan.
