About Najran
Located in southern Saudi between mountains, oases and the desert, Najran is a place with a rich heritage and culture. While the region was once a hub of the spice trade, modern Najran has developed into a popular tourist spot, especially for those with an appreciation for history. From Qasr Al Emara to Al Aan Palace and the Palace of Ibn Madi, visitors to Najran can wander through stunning historical buildings. The Hima Cultural Area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is another must-see, with rock-art images from thousands of years ago. Find out even more about the history of the region at the Najran Regional Museum and the Al Okhdood Archaeological Site, which feature artifacts, drawings and engravings dating back more than 2,000 years.
