Najran

Almost on the Yemeni border, in the south-west of the country, Najran is one of the most fascinating and least visited places in the kingdom.

Set in a sprawling oasis, this area has been inhabited for about 4000 years, and was once a major stop on the frankincense route.


Old Palace

Najran has one of the kingdom's newest and best museums, with displays on the formation of wadis and deserts, archaeological finds from the area, local crafts and tools, and photos of the area taken by Harry St John Philby, the famous diplomat, explorer and spy.
