Petra, the rock face city which is one of the Seven Wonders of the World. If you go along the valley, Siq, linked to the plateau at 950m above sea level, you will stand face-to-face Al-Khazneh unrealistically.

The Kingdom built by a group of Arabic people, the Nabateans, in the 6th century B.C. disappeared through twice earthquakes after it was conquered by the Roman Empire in the 1st century.

There is nothing that goes forever even though it is made into a grand city by carving precipices and one can achieve every wonders. Only God who is the master of history can lower the high and lift the low with his mighty hands. Who can stand before Him without any fear?

Only the beneficiaries of the Cross and the ones who have defeated their arrogance can stand on the strength of God’s hands.[GnP News]

“‘The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who live in the clefts of the rock, in your lofty dwelling, who say in your heart ‶who will bring me down to the ground?″ Though you soar aloft like the eagle, though your nest is set among the stars, from there I will bring you down,’ declares the LORD.”(Obadiah1:3~4_ESV)
