Epic Click Travel & Tourism introduces Saudi Arabia, a country of vast deserts, rich Islamic heritage, and rapidly developing modern cities.
Saudi Arabia is undergoing major transformation, and it is quickly becoming a key destination for travelers in the Middle East. While it has strict cultural norms, it offers breathtaking landscapes and impressive historical sites. Here’s what you should know before visiting:
Cultural Insights:
- Dress Code: Saudi Arabia is a conservative country, especially for women. Women are required to wear an abaya (loose-fitting robe) in public, although wearing a headscarf is not mandatory for foreigners. Men should dress modestly as well.
- Alcohol: Alcohol is strictly prohibited in Saudi Arabia. Be aware that this extends to public behavior, so avoid public displays of affection.
- Respect for Local Customs: The country has a rich Islamic heritage, so it’s important to respect local customs, especially during prayer times and Ramadan.
Must-See Attractions:
- Riyadh: The capital offers a mix of modern and historical landmarks, including the National Museum of Saudi Arabia, Kingdom Centre Tower, and Masmak Fort, a 19th-century fortress.
- Al-Ula: A stunning archaeological site, home to the Madain Saleh (Al-Hijr), a UNESCO World Heritage site with ancient rock tombs carved into the sandstone cliffs.
- Jeddah: Known for its coastal beauty and historical significance, visit the Jeddah Corniche and the Historic Al-Balad district, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
- Edge of the World: A breathtaking natural site located just outside of Riyadh, offering panoramic views of the surrounding desert and dramatic cliffs.
