Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade is a 1989 American adventure film directed by Steven Spielberg, from a story co-written by executive producer George Lucas. In the film, set largely in 1938, Indiana searches for his father, a Holy Grail scholar, who has been kidnapped by Nazis.
Our default picture shows Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford), his father, Professor Henry Jones Sr. (Sean Connery) and Sallah Mohammed Faisel el-Kahir (John Rhys-Davies) on their horses in front of Al Khazneh Temple which is represented as the entrance to the final resting place of the Holy Grail near Hatay.
Al Khazneh (the Treasury) is one of the most elaborate temples in the ancient Jordanian city of Petra. As with most of the other buildings in this ancient town, this structure was also carved out of a sandstone rock face. It has classical Greek-influenced architecture, and it is a popular tourist attraction. See our Waymark
