Petra Treasury (Al-Khazneh): facade light in May 2027
Short answer: On 15 May 2027: Sun on the Treasury facade 09:05–12:00, most frontal around 09:05. Every day of May is in the table.
The Treasury is carved into a cliff facing the end of the Siq, with another cliff close in front of it. The sun only reaches the facade once it has climbed over that cliff, so direct light comes in a short window in the late morning.
