Search for inner peace at the Third International Yoga Festival: "The Wonders Of The World Peace Pilgrimage: From Giza to Petra". Organised by Hermes Arabia and Yoga Synthesis, the festival features a journey from Egypt to Jordan.
Participants can learn about the art of yoga and its benefits, including sunrise and evening meditations, Kundalini yoga, astrology, karma and free will, spirituality and much more.
The journey starts at the ancient Pyramids of Giza with a special ceremony at the Khufu Pyramid. On the third day, participants travel to the Jordan Rift Valley and the lowest point on Earth, the Dead Sea. A short distance from the main base, the next trip is to Mount Nebo, the burial place of the prophet Moses, with views of Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The last leg of the journey takes participants to the 2000 year-old ancient Petra, a city carved into Jordan's rose-coloured sandstone mountains.
