Royals in the Sun: The Queen Needs No Assistance at the Ancient City of Petra

To mark the British summer holiday season, we're launching a brand new series: Royals in the Sun.

Unearthing rare archive of our favourite royals in tropical climes, we'll be taking a trip down memory lane with the Windsors.

Part four shows the Queen visiting the beautiful ancient city of Petra in Jordan back in 1984 (you might recognise it as a filming location in 'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade).

Despite the site's steep and slippery steps, the Queen confidently waved away an offer of assistance from a local guide.

We'll be posting at 8AM on weekdays throughout August, so come back tomorrow for another video!
