A mud building in Ushaiger or Ushaiqer. Ushaiger Heritage Village is an old mud town about 2 hours' drive from Riyadh. Riyadh is the capital of Saudi Arabia, and you can wander for hours through the narrow mud alleys in this ancient town. Past mud houses with beautifully decorated wooden Arabic doors. And in some places you have a view of the town. Ushaiger is largely restored and you get a nice impression of how people lived here in the past. If you're lucky, you can also see the inside of a traditional house. There are not very many old towns to see in Saudi Arabia. In that respect, it is definitely worth visiting Ushaiger. And Saudi Arabia is keen to develop tourism, so there is a good chance this will become a tourist attraction. Either way, an interesting place just under 200 kilometres northwest of Riyadh.
