AlUla Old Town Village

UNWTO Best Tourism Award Recipient

A crossroads of civilisations and oasis city on incense-trading routes, people have inhabited AlUla for thousands of years. By preserving its rich heritage and continuing to flourish as a rural tourist destination, it has been awarded Best Tourism Village by the United Nations World Tourism Organization. Today, AlUla Old Town Village encompasses its ancient Old Town, the lush Oasis and AlJadidah Arts District.

Old Town


Inhabited until the not-so-distant past, AlUla Old Town is a labyrinth of tightly packed streets lined with mudbrick houses, shops and squares. Above it all, a 10th-century fort still watches over the town and its scenic desert valley.
