I made this video about Ha'il, a province Northwest of Saudi Arabia, where its people are known for true hospitality and generosity. The legacy was passed on by legendary man Hatim Altaeey, considered to be the most generous and hospitable Arab with records of his good acts in Arabian Nights. But not only Ha'il is known for these values, it's also known for its epic travel destinations. For one, traveling along the great red sand dunes of the Nafud desert, you'll find the town of Jubbah where you can study ir ta the Graffiti Rock Art Mountain where prehistoric carvings of animals and other symbols are abundant. There's also the old fort called A'arif Castle that;s made of mud and clay and was built on the 17th century AD. The now restored castle is nestled on a mountaitop overlooking the city. Finally, we explored one of ancient extinct volcanoes of Ha'il, Harrat Hutayma, and standing on the edge of its 1 kilometer orifice is breathtaking.
The accompanying video trailer, though short (fro now), yet shows how epic these places in Ha'il are.
