My favourite holiday By Yousef
We went to Petra last year. It’s a very interesting place and I learnt a lot. I want to visit it again. Petra is a very old city and it’s very big too. There are lots of beautiful old buildings. The people were very clever when they built the city. They used rock from the mountains. The rock is red, and the buildings are red too. I took a lot of photos with my phone.
We went to the museum and Petra too. It opened in 1994 and there are lots of things to see. I learnt a lot about the history of the city and its people. I bought a book in the shop. It’s got lots of pictures. I enjoyed the trip very much.
