AlUla
AlUla, an ancient desert oasis and a hidden treasure spanning 200,000 years of human history dripping with archaeological and cultural significance. This is a story that is yet to be fully told...
AlUla, Forever Revitalising
AlUla is far more than just a place. It's a state of mind, a portal to our ancestors and a landscape that has remained unchanged for millennia. Over 200,000 years of history history has been sculpted here, with travellers drawn by AlUla's ancient oasis and huge sandstone rock formations. Since then, it's felt as if time has stood blissfully still, where AlUla's traditions, culture and hospitality have been left to develop organically, with each generation that passes learning from the one previous.
Ancient travellers came to AlUla to recharge, share ideas and meet new people. Today, visiting AlUla is the same type of adventure, where you can witness how humans have left their imprint on this enigmatic landscape and feel revitalised while you hear stories passed down generations and revel among Mother Nature's majesty. This is AlUla, unlike anywhere you've ever been before.
