The Corinthian Tomb

The Corinthian Tomb: the Royal Tomb modelled on the Treasury's facade.

The Corinthian Tomb, third of the Royal Tombs, echoes the Treasury's facade with its columned portico and broken pediment — the closest Petra comes to Hellenistic architecture, weathered into soft romantic ruin.

Its eroded interior has hidden chambers. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan group it with the other Royal Tombs, and full package tours to Jordan include the full terrace.
