Explore Hegra
AlUla’s story stretches back thousands of years, shaped by ancient civilisations and its place along historic trade routes connecting Arabia and beyond.
At its heart lies Hegra, the ancient Nabataean city and Saudi Arabia’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, where more than 110 monumental tombs were carved into sandstone over 2,000 years ago. Across its archaeological sites, oasis and old settlements, AlUla preserves the traces of the cultures and communities that have shaped this remarkable landscape through the centuries.
