Sweet Dreams are made of This (Incense and Gold)…
Here is my submission in this special thursday. Truly telling an age old story. Fans of the silver screen (and especially those who like Indiana Jones) will find this sight quite familiar. Behind this impressive stone facade was the vault of a old crusader. The guardian of the holy grail - the cup of everlasting youth and happiness.
In reality it is located in Petra. City of wealthy merchants, that made a fortune selling incense to the temples of the old world. Was it a temple? A house of treasures? A burial site - if we look at recent excavations? It is a mystery that tickled the imagination of generations to come. Thus the name under which it is known today: Khazne al-Firaun. Treasure house of the Pharaoh. Yes. Sometimes history provides great stuff. That kind of stuff dreams are made of. Or iconic movies. Think about it - hold on tight to your dreams and - good tumblin.”
