Madain Saleh is
the UNESCO s World Heritage pre-Islamic archaeological site located in Al
Madina Province. It is also called as Al Hijir. When you enter the area, you
will find yourself surrounded by interconnected mountains and separate rocky
cliffs on a sprawling landscape. Mada en Saleh has been mentioned in the Holy
Quran with the name Al Hijir as the home to Tahmuds, who were destroyed by
God for transgression. Madain Saleh was the capital and an important city of
the Nabataeans after Petra in Jordan. Its prominent civilization and cultural
role is dated to first century BC and the first centuries AD, as the
flourishing state of Nabataeans before its fall at the hands of the Roman
Empire in 106 AD. However, Al Hijir continued to be a source of cultural and
intellectual interaction until the fourth century AD.
