Medina is the second holiest city in Islam, after

Medina is the second holiest city in Islam, after Mecca. This is the place where prophet Muhammad established the Muslim religion and the place where he is also buried.
Unlike Mecca, the city of Medina is open to non-Muslim visitors. However, non-Muslims are strictly prohibited from entering Al-Masjid Al-Nabawi, the Prophet's Mosque.
Perfect spot to see the city from high above is the nearby mountain with perfect timing being the sunset time! 😻🙏

The Arab hospitality we have experienced all over

The Arab hospitality we have experienced all over the country, and which literally had no bounds, is easily ranked as the #1 memory from our Saudi trip! 😻🙏
Saudi people were genuinely kind, welcoming and hospitable everywhere we have been!
As a traditional greeting gesture, they have been welcoming us with a cup of Arab coffee ☕️ and delicious local dates! It comes without saying that we never said no to that! 😃❤️

Ever since Saudi Arabia opened up to tourism, AlUl

Ever since Saudi Arabia opened up to tourism, AlUla, hosting the first UNESCO World Heritage site in the country, was promoted as the #1 must-visit destination for international travelers.
What comes as a big surprise is that despite its historical significance, AlUla was deliberately neglected by locals for centuries. Reason being the clear statement made by Prophet Muhammed in the Quran that this place had been cursed by Allah due to the sins of the Thamud people that were residing here back in those times. As a consequence of this curse, the land of Thamud was severely hit by earthquakes, destroyed and abandoned.
The Saudi government, in line with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 program, urges people to start visiting AlUla. The efforts to revive AlUla’s past role as a thriving hub of trade and cultural exchange target at offering to visitors a unique travel experience, including a combination of outdoor adventures, wellness, heritage, and entertainment.

Rijal Alma is yet another heritage village of Saud

Rijal Alma is yet another heritage village of Saudi Arabia that has been gradually transformed into a major tourist attraction among local and international travelers. Hidden in the mountains of the country’s southwest Asir region, this small village is characterized by a Yemen-style architecture due to its strategic location and proximity to Yemen itself.
Rijal Alma historically served as one of the most important trade centers in the Arabian Peninsula. As such it was strongly influenced both culturally and architecturally by the foreign travelers that passed through. The village’s iconic stone buildings (also known as forts) are decorated by skilled painters in fascinating colorful combinations and designs.
Most of these buildings have gone through a thorough restoration driven by the locals themselves in an effort to preserve the heritage of the region. To that direction, a Heritage Museum has also been established onsite, displaying over 2800 exhibits collected among the local families.
How to Get to Rijal Alma: Rijal Alma can be reached by car within just 1.5 hours from the city of Abha (the capital of the Asir region).
