Culture, history, shopping, nature… Saudi has it all. As the 12th largest country in the world, there is no shortage of activities enjoy. In the big cities of Riyadh and Jeddah, visitors can immerse themselves in displays that not only highlight the ancient past, but also contemporary works by local and international artists.
Step out further and you’ll find striking lookout points from above, on the ground, and under the sea. For example, the Edge of the World offers uninterrupted views of the horizon from its 300-meter-high cliffs. And the 6,000-year-old Al Ahsa Oasis – one of Saudi Arabia’s most captivating destinations – has many hot and cold springs to explore.
Water lovers can also relish in endless views of the tranquil Arabian Gulf from Damman. Alongside the nearby cities of Al Khobar and Dhahran, you’ll find an open-air lifestyle of breezy waterfronts, parks, and beaches. Or for those seeking a getaway to the Red Sea, look no further than a cruise. Experience the balmy summer sun on the west coast from the opulent upper deck of a sleek, luxury liner.
