Tomb of Aaron
Tomb of Aaron is a historical shrine located at the top of Jabal Harun (Mount Aaron), west of the Jordanian city of Petra in Ma’an Governorate. It is believed that the shrine is the burial place of Aaron, the brother of Moses. The shrine was completely renovated and a mosque was built by the Mamluks in the 14th century AD.
