Full-Day Tour to Al Ukhdood Archaeological city

Visit the archaeological site, the Najran National Museum, and the Emara palace and learn about the history of Najran while strolling through the biggest park in Saudi Arabia, the King Fahd Park.

Al-Ukhdood is a historical city dating back to the era of the Kingdom of Himyar (110 BC until 525 AD) located on the banks of Wadi Najran in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The city was famous for the historic massacre that Dhul Nawas, one of the kings of the Himyar state, inflicted in the year 520 against the Christians of the region (the owners of the grooves).
