ABOUT SAUDI ARABIA
Contrary to what some might believe, Saudi Arabia can be a very attractive and safe place in which to live, with extremely low crime levels, a strong family-oriented ethos, and year-round sunshine. It also offers a unique and fascinating cultural experience, and provided that one has an open mind and is prepared to respect certain cultural rules and customs, Saudis are very warm and hospitable people.
History enthusiasts will enjoy the ancient Nabatean site of Madain Saleh (sister city of Petra in Jordan), the Al Masmak Fort and Diriyah in Riyadh, and Dumat Al Jandal, among others. There are also many natural attractions, such as the Asir Mountains (3,000m), the ‘Empty Quarter’ desert, the Hejjaz, and the Red Sea.
Of course, living in Saudi Arabia is not without certain challenges, but with proper orientation and support, these can easily be minimized and dealt with. For those seeking more westernized forms of entertainment (bars, clubs, cinemas, etc), the island of Bahrain is just one-hour across the King Fahd Causeway.
For those wishing to explore other Gulf countries, Africa and Asia, Dammam’s international airport offers easy access to destinations such as Dubai, Doha, Singapore, Addis Ababa, Bangkok and Mombasa (max 6 hours).
