Nabataeans dragged goats up these stairs to appease their gods; you climb them for the view.

A 45-minute stair climb from the Street of Facades brings you to Petra's most dramatic high place — a wind-swept altar platform with panoramic views over the entire rose-city below. The descent on the far side passes the Garden Tomb, Soldier's Tomb and Garden Triclinium, making a satisfying loop.
