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. 🙏💕
Another wonderful video! Saudi hospitality is amazing and, as someone from the US, refreshing to see. I think it helps that you two are friendly and genuine. Take care!
Thank you. The people here are so warm hearted. It is ingrained in the culture to be hospitable. We really can learn a lot from them as it is a wonderful way to live life. So glad you enjoyed it. 🙏👍😊
We were also very pleasantly surprised on how hospitable the people are here. You literally cannot walk down the street without somebody welcoming you or offering help. it is very humbling. 🙏❤️
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.
I miss Al hasa where I used to work there way back 2012😢 i love Saudi food, customs ❤❤❤🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭there so many dates palm tree there and Al hasa is also part of Eastern province like Udhailiyah
@@FrugalTravellers yep, I can't figure out saudi vibes gives me magestic vibes and Aura you can feel it in the air. As if they're an ancient civilizations they have their
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 .
Thank you for your kind comment and useful information. We really enjoyed our time there and the people of Saudi Arabia were so kind and welcoming to us. Thank you 🙏😊
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 so much 🙏. We really enjoyed our stay there. It's a very interesting place and the people are so lovely and welcoming. Hopefully we will get to return one day. 🙏🙏
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. Thank you
Thank you for your lovely comment🙏 I didn't wear an abaya, but it was cold at night in February so I was glad I had my fleece and a scarf! I'm guessing it will be scorching hot in summer so pack light coloured clothes then 😃😁 ~ Mandy

You've to visit Qarah mountain and go inside the cave 👍🏼

That satellite image does show a lot of the oasis was lost to urbanization.
I can imagine it would have been even bigger before.

Thanks for this advice. We'll look it up. 👍
I wasn't expecting a poet. Wow 😲 Thank you 🙏
