Petra
Carved back into the walls of a desert valley, in the south of what is now Jordan, is a whole city cut from the rock. It was not built up, stone laid patiently upon stone, in the way of almost every city ever made. It was cut inward, into the cliffs themselves, by people who carved where others would have piled.
Tender and reassuring, steady when things aren't, present and calm without ever overpromising.
