    You will never find this hospitality and generosity in the west. Born and raised in the UK but I also lived in Saudi Arabia. We can learn a lot from them instead of looking down!

      You are totally right. We have come across this special hospitality so many times here in the Middle East and we enjoy sharing with the world the real truth of how people are here. 🙏💕

    Welcome to saudi arabia guys.
    Alahsa was part of one of the oldest civillizations in the middle east and the region has been known as the most fertile on the arabian penunsula for millennia. It was very rich in groundwater to the point where people could literally dig water out with primitive tools. Hence it's famous for public groundwater pools.

    How are you doing mrs Mandy mr lee . I hope you have great time in Saudi Arabia my homeland . I sent comments to you before . Honestly I visited Ahsa before COVID-19 global pandemic. Just some attractions as museum , shopping center , historical market. I just found out that Al-Ahsa oasis is biggest oasis in the world. UNESCO registered world heritage list . It’s most prominent tourists destinations in Saudi Arabia. Rich archaeological landmarks heritage treasure that trace history of human settlements in region since Neolithic. There more than 2.5 million palm trees in oasis , which fed from huge underground aquifer which allows agriculture all year round in region that is otherwise sand desert. Thank you for sharing your trips with us . Honestly there are many places unknown to us . Bon voyage best wishes for you your dearest ones .

    Wonderful to see you in Al-AHSA my hometown.
    The thing you saw is actually not a big lemon. It is natural fruit called Citron in Arabic “أترنج” or “ATRANG”. I hope you can pronounce it.
    Also, if you are planning to another visit please let me know.

    Thanks for this video . I really learnt a lot about Al ahsa but I have some questions to ask
    Must a foreigner wear an Abaya in Al ahsa?
    What type of clothing should one pack when coming to Al ahsa.
