Petra Al-Khazneh - Jordan - It's All About Tintin on Waymarking.com

Petra Al-Khazneh is definitely a "must see" in Jordan and is the most popular tourist attraction in Jordan with more than 400.000 visitors in 2015.

As a real fan of Tintin you will easily recognize the valley and the temple from the book: The Red Sea Sharks.

Tintin and Haddock are riding on horses on their way to look for emir Mohammed Ben Kalish Ezab who is hiding in the temple.

Hergé was inspired to the scenery after reading an article in National Geographic.
