    For a city dweller, deserts usually seem forbidding and inhospitable, despite the fact that there are people who made their homes in these arid corners of the planet.

    Sometimes even entire cities can thrive in the middle of the desert, and become fun places to be, at least if Las Vegas is any indication. Ancient desert cities and oases have often been abandoned and now lie in ruin, and that might make a desert seem a bit creepy, but also a great destination for an adventurous traveler.

    Ruins in the desert never cease to fascinate, and while some might still be quite mysterious and off the beaten track, many of them have become popular tourist attractions. If desolate landscapes and ancient wrecks are your thing, you’re probably going to enjoy visiting the most exciting desert ruins in the world.

    Mentions of Saudi Arabia usually conjure up mixed feelings in people. The tales of the Arabian Nights with their lush exoticism are tied to the desert lands and rich cities of Saudi Arabia, as well as grim stories of social and political repression. But if you can get past the misgivings (and manage to obtain a notoriously difficult to get travel visa), Saudi Arabia will most definitely surprise you.

    The home of natural wonders like deserts with dunes the size of buildings, exotic animals, and inspiring historical sites, Saudi Arabia is definitely not the most liberal and accepting travel destinations, but worth a bit of effort if you don’t mind conforming to local norms and customs. So here are top 5 sights in Saudi Arabia.
