The Painted Biclinium

The Painted Biclinium in Little Petra: the only Nabataean interior frescoes still in place.

The Painted Biclinium in Little Petra hides the only surviving Nabataean interior frescoes still in their original setting — vines, birds and winged figures on a plastered ceiling, recently conserved.

The climb up its rock steps is short but steep. Travellers who hire car & driver in Jordan pair it with Little Petra, and full package tours to Jordan include it on the Little Petra stop.
