From the plateau of the Jabal al-Madhbah one has a breathtaking view of the mountain landscape and the wide valley. Straight ahead on the photo you can see the Umm Al-Biyara ("Mother of Cisterns"), the highest mountain in the city of Petra, and on the right, the hill ez-Zantur with remains of Nabataean houses and a magnificent villa.
