Thank you. Glad that you like it. I only posted VERY little of KSA until now. I hope that a thread like this might change the perception of KSA even a little bit. It is largely a country unknown for most people outside the Arab world and unfortunately there are some stereotypes that are often exaggerated or plain and simple untrue. Although it's far from perfect and has it's own problems (small and big) like all countries.

The Mada'in Saleh (UNESCO World Heritage Site) is a pre-Islamic archaelogical site located in the Madinah Province. It is a sister city of Petra (Jordan) and was also built by the ancient Semitic people called Nabateans in the 1st century CE, part 1:
