La description

Situé à l'est d' Al Ula , au cœur de Hegra, un site archéologique du Hedjaz, Jabal Ithlib est une montagne glorieuse et naturelle et un site culturel. Historiquement, c'était un lieu de culte pour les Nabatéens qui étaient d'anciens nomades arabes du désert du Néguev.

Attractions principales

La plus grande attraction de Jabal Ithlib est le «Diwan», une grande pièce creusée dans les rochers de la montagne qui ressemble à une salle à manger ou à un triclinium. Il est historiquement considéré comme une salle importante pour les rassemblements tels que les banquets royaux et les réunions politiques et possède également une façade ouverte, qui a probablement été conçue pour les observateurs extérieurs ou publics. En dehors de cela, les racines culturelles et le paysage époustouflant des montagnes attirent les touristes du monde entier.

La montagne est accessible à partir d'un passage à travers le canal Siq qui se trouve à gauche de Diwan. Au-delà de ce canal se trouve la zone centrale de la montagne qui présente de nombreuses sculptures et inscriptions pouvant avoir quelque chose à voir avec des pratiques religieuses anciennes. Il y a aussi un canal d'eau qui traverse le centre de la chaîne de montagnes et mène à un bassin d'eau naturel et éventuellement à une citerne. C'est un autre site à partir duquel nous pouvons tirer les leçons du passé.

That place changed my perception about Saudi and about Arabic people. It was one of my nicest experiences abroad. We arrived with 30 min before the last guided tour, and we cannot pay directly at the entrance so we downloaded an app and tried to pay into the app with Visa, Mastercard and other options but it didn't work. We were pretty sad because that was the first and probably last chance to see Hegra, as our next accommodation was at ~700km. The stuff was incredibly nice. They gave us water, juices, and shadow. The best part: they provide us a Jeep and a tour even though we didn't manage to pay inside the app. At the end of the tour, we wanted to pay them directly in EUR, but they did not accept any money even if we insisted on quite a bit. That's tell a lot about Arabic culture and I will always remember about this kind gesture. If they see this review, I want to thank them again and tell them they made our trip much much nicer. This place is called "THE LITTLE SISTER OF PETRA" and it is totally worth that nickname. It was very interesting to find out about the history of this place, and I particularly loved the last point of the tour where we had a moment of peace and silence. I felt totally connected with that old place filled with history. Place: 5/5 Staff: 10/5 Price: ~37EUR / person (includes guide and Jeep)

The site of al-Hijr was settled by the tribe of Thamud who (took) for (themselves) palaces from its plains and (carved) from the mountains, homes. According to the Quran, the Thamudis were punished by God for their idolatry, struck by an earthquake and lightning blasts. Thus, the site has earned a reputation as a cursed place. This place is summary of history and civilizations.
