Al Wajh Saudi Arabia
The coastal city of Al Wajh is known for its pristine beaches to the north and south, and its Hijazi-style old town, which resembles a less bustling equivalent of Jeddah’s famous Al Balad. It is also a half-day’s drive from AlUla and the famously beautiful rock-cut tombs of Hegra. Plan to savor fresh seafood while you’re in Al Wajh — fishing is a primary activity for many of the city’s residents — eaten in the traditional way, cross-legged on floor cushions. And feast your eyes on the stunning architecture of the city’s numerous mosques
