Legends of Glorious Fayd

Have your breakfast in a traditional restaurant with a small heritage museum that you will definitely enjoy, along with delicious food!

You are about to visit one of the most ancient cities in the Kingdom that stands on the old pilgrim route. Most of its buildings date back to early Islamic times: a mosque, walls of the old fort, wells, underground aqueducts, and a castle. Fayd is mentioned in many old books as one of the main cities on the pilgrim route from Persia and Iraq. Near the site is the Fayd Historical City Archaeological Research and Excavation Centre, where you can see some collectables, artefacts and photos that have been discovered.

Kharash Palace is located in the heart of Fayd City. It has outer walls with watchtowers and the palace inside. The castle protected the city and the pilgrims. Take your time to explore one of the best historical sites in the area!

5 minutes by car and you can witness one of the best archaeological places in the country with ancient inscriptions and drawings to complete your journey through the great ancient city of Fayd.

Do you think it's time to have lunch? We recommend you make a stop at Medhyaf Restaurant for a rest and a good lunch before you continue to follow the trip itinerary.

Stop to fuel the car and buy some snacks to take with you. You have a long way to go before evening!

Now you're arriving in the city of Unaizah to admire Al-Bassam Heritage House.
This palace was built in the 14th century in the traditional Najd style. You can see traditional living and meeting rooms, warehouses, and many others. Many cultural events are run here regularly where visitors can enjoy craft souvenirs, traditional food, etc... There’s a farm nearby where fresh products are available.

It was a long day and a long drive to Riyadh! It's time to relax with a very good dinner in a traditional restaurant with a small museum. Have a great dinner spiced up by the experiences of the day.
