TRAVEL | Saudi Arabia’s Al Ula To Reopen Including Ancient Site Al Hijr

Saudi Arabia’s major cultural and heritage attraction Al Ula will reopen this October and for the first time it will be open to visitors years round.

Al Ula contains many archeological treasures including Al Hijir, the first landmark in the Kingdom to be listed by UNESCO as World Heritage Site.

Al Hijir is the remains of a 2,000-year-old city founded by an ancient Middle Eastern people in pre-Islamic times. In the first century B.C. the Nabatean community made Al Hijr their second-largest city, only behind their capital of Petra in modern Jordan.
