    AlUlaSaudi Arabia1st century BCE–1st century CE

    Hegra, also known as Mada'in Salih or Al-Hijr, is Saudi Arabia's premier UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring over one hundred monumental Nabataean rock-cut tombs. Steeped in ancient history and cursed lore, regional tradition associated the site with the biblical and quranic Thamud civilization, leading travelers for centuries to avoid remaining after nightfall.
