Our first stop in Wadi Rum (where Lawrence of Arabia was filmed, and where T.E. Lawrence really fought) is "Lawrence's Seven Pillars of Wisdom." However this rock formation really has nothing to do with Lawrence or the "Seven Pillars of Wisdom," which was the name of a book Lawrence wrote. The book says absolutely nothing about this rock formation and the "seven pillars" title comes from the Book of Proverbs. Someone just decided to name this in such a way to lure tourists.
