Saudi Arabia, a journey to the heart of the Orient
In the heart of the Orient, between the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf, lies Saudi Arabia, the largest country on the Arabian Peninsula. The territory is so vast that it is difficult to determine its exact size. The government puts it at 2,217,949 km², while others estimate the country's surface area at between 1,960,582 km² and 2,240,000 km². The strength of this destination lies in its landscape, dominated by the dunes of the Quart Vide, which conceal oases of greenery here and there. A walk in the heart of the desert leads you to discover the Bedouins, the people of the desert. At the heart of this world of dunes lies the Asir mountain range, where Saudis often come to cool off. On the Saudi coast, a broad coastline stretching over 2,500 km awaits bathing and lounging enthusiasts. The coral reefs that adorn the seabed are home to a wide biodiversity that will delight diving enthusiasts. In addition to its unique landscape, Saudi Arabia boasts a rich historical heritage, testimony to its glorious past. From the ancient Nabataean city of Madahine-Saleh to the Nabataean tombs of Najran and Jubbah, history buffs will have no time to get bored.

Saudi Arabia is one of those rare destinations where every travel whim can be satisfied. While budding adventurers and thrill-seekers set off to conquer the Empty Quarter desert, history and culture buffs follow in the footsteps of Saudi Arabia's past. El Djof and Sakakah and their four-thousand-year-old remains, the rock paintings that adorn the town of Jubbah. The Nabataean city of Madahine-Saleh, in the heart of the desert, is a must for those wishing to combine historical discovery with a desert safari. This UNESCO World Heritage site contains tombs carved out of sandstone rock dating back to the first century BC. Qasr Farid, the site's largest and most isolated burial site, is a must-see.
Deeply religious, Saudis attach great importance to their places of worship. True architectural masterpieces, Main Jum'ah, Al Murabba and Al Johara are sure to catch the eye. During your trip to this Arab country, you'll have the opportunity to attend the festivities celebrating the end of Ramadan. You can also visit Mecca, the pilgrimage site for Muslims the world over. Every trip to Saudi Arabia includes a visit to Riyadh, where time seems to stand still. In this centuries-old city, the citadel and majestic palaces of the city open their doors to you.
Saudi Arabia enjoys a desert climate that can be excessively hot at times. There is, however, a slight variation depending on the regions you visit. So, if you're dreaming of a sunny vacation, Saudi Arabia won't disappoint. In this country, the sun shines in all seasons and everywhere you go. However, the best time to visit this oriental country is in spring, between November and March. At this time of year, a little rain cools the atmosphere, making walks much more pleasant. If you're looking for a different way to spend the festive season, you can also plan your trip to Saudi Arabia between December and January. During this period, temperatures are very mild, around 15°C, making for a particularly pleasant stay. The period between April and October is also a good time to visit Saudi Arabia. However, if you don't want to be bothered by the intense heat, it's best to avoid this destination during the summer season, i.e. between May and September. During this period, the thermometer can easily reach peak temperatures of 45°C to 50°C.
