Qasr al-Bint is the best preserved structure in Petra and the main temple of the ancient city. The name Qasr al-Bint Far'un - "Castle of the Pharaoh's Daughter" comes from the Bedouins and refers to a local legend. The construction of the temple dates back to the 1st century AD.

Petra (ancient Greek Πέτρα [ˈpɛtʁa] “rock, rock mass”, Arabic البتراء al-Batrā ’, Nabataean probably Reqmu“ the red ”), a ruin site in present-day Jordan, was the capital of the Nabataean empire in antiquity. Because of its monumental grave temples, the facades of which were carved directly from the rock, it is considered a unique cultural monument. On December 6, 1985, Petra was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List.
