The Garden Hall

The Garden Hall: Petra's water-engineered garden with a pool island pavilion.

The Garden Hall complex near the Great Temple reveals Petra's engineering genius — an artificial garden and pool with an island pavilion, irrigated by the city's sophisticated channels in the middle of the desert.

The rebuilt pavilion edge marks the pool clearly. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan pause here on the main loop, and full package tours to Jordan use it to explain Nabataean water technology.
