The Al Qarah mountain rises 205 metres above sea level and offers 360-degree views over Al Ahsa. SPA

Al Ahsa Oasis, a Unesco World Heritage Site in Saudi Arabia, covers 85.4 square kilometres and is reportedly over 6,000 years old. SPA

It has more than 2.5 million date palms watered by a vast network of artesian springs. SPA

Al Ahsa's name was inspired by the palm trees, the shade they give and the dates they bear. SPA

Al Ahsa is famous for its khalasah dates, and it's also where the Al Ahsa date festival takes place. SPA

On the outskirts of Al Ahsa, Yellow Lake is hemmed in on all sides by lofty sand dunes and fringed by a thick ring of ferns. SPA

Visitors need a four-wheel drive to access the lake. SPA

It is a great place to go bird watching or kayaking. SPA
