The four servants were all locals, or more precisely, employees of the InterContinental Hotels Group. Less than three kilometers southeast of Fensifur Island was a private island managed by the InterContinental Hotels Group. The InterContinental Hotels Group not only owned several islands in the Maldives that were specially built with high-end holiday villas and hotels, but also managed the private islands of many wealthy people.
Feiyang Group, managed by Michael Burko, owns a considerable number of shares in InterContinental Hotels Group. So when Tomínitz bought the island for Yang Jing, he entrusted it to InterContinental Hotels Group for management.
Although the area of Fensif Island is not large and cannot be compared with those islands that are several square kilometers in size, this island excels in its original ecology. In addition, there is a circle of coral reefs around Fensif Island that has not yet emerged from the sea level, making it a great area for diving.
The two holiday villas on Fensif Island are large enough to accommodate the twenty or so people in Yang Jing's team. Even if there is not enough space, sleeping in a tent on the beach is actually a very good choice in a low-latitude country like the Maldives.
The clear blue sea and clean air made Gege and Yang Jing completely fall in love with this place. They simply stayed here for three nights before embarking on their journey.
The next destination is Jordan, to be more precise, the ancient city of Petra, known as the "Last Lost Paradise".
The ancient city of Petra is located 262 kilometers south of Amman, the capital of Jordan, in the Musa Valley surrounded by mountains. It is not only a witness to Jordan's ancient civilization, but also a wonder in the Middle East and a treasure in the history of human architecture. It is known as a "relief gem embedded in the rock wall".
Like the Taj Mahal that we visited before, the ancient city of Petra is also known as "one of the New Seven Wonders of the World."
The Boeing BBJ3 landed safely at Queen Alia Airport, about 20 kilometers south of Amman. After leaving the airport, the convoy that had been booked in advance was waiting for Yang Jing and his group at the door.
Most of the more than 50 top properties owned by Yang Jing around the world are managed by InterContinental Hotels Group. So this time when Yang Jing took Gege on his honeymoon, he would notify the local InterContinental Hotel before arriving at each place, and then they would be picked up by the local InterContinental Hotel vehicles or helicopters.
This time, because Gege and Yang Jing both wanted to experience the charm of the Middle Eastern desert, the InterContinental Hotels Group purchased six Mercedes-Benz G-Classes.
Because it was still early and Yang Jing and Gege had rested enough on the plane, after leaving the airport, Morris and his team took over the six cars. After getting in the cars, they headed straight south along Highway 15.
After turning from Highway 15 to Highway 35 and driving south for less than 100 kilometers, you will arrive at the small town of Wadi Musa. The ancient city of Petra is located in the Musa Valley, which is more than 1,000 meters above sea level, west of Wadi Musa.
Petra means "stone" in Greek. Because this ancient city is almost entirely carved out of rock, it is called the "Stone City"; and because the surrounding rocks are pink, it is also called the "Rose City". The ancient city was successively ruled by the Roman, Byzantine and Jewish empires, leaving behind architectural relics of various styles.
This was once the capital of the Nabataean Kingdom, and was very powerful because it was easy to defend, had abundant water resources, and was located on the east-west trade route. There are two ways to get from Wadi Musa to the Musa Valley where the ancient city of Petra is located. One way is to drive in from the north, and the other is to walk over the mountain.
Yang Jing and Gege did not choose to drive around, but chose to walk over the mountain. Therefore, they needed to climb a mountain west of Wadi Musa. The way up the mountain was very steep. On one side, there were caves and colorful stones on the rock wall. On the other side, there were colorful stones and pink wild flowers in the river valley. Looking up, the five-colored steps stretched continuously to the blue sky, like the rainbow road in the myth.
After climbing this mountain, you will see the famous Musa Valley, where the ancient city of Petra is located, but now it has become a ruin. Since you are here, you can't miss the largest stone sculpture building in Petra, the Khazneh Temple.
The Khazneh Temple is located at the end of the Sikkim Gorge...
