Begin with a visit to Hegra, Saudi Arabia’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site. This ancient Nabataean city features over 110 remarkably preserved tombs carved into the golden sandstone rock, clearly revealing the stories of a bygone era. Discover the historical city of Dadan, the former capital of the Dadanite and Lihyanite kingdoms. Then head to the nearby Jabal Ikmah, often described as an ‘open-air library’ due to its abundance of ancient rock inscriptions.
