Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabia is defined by extremes: vast, silent deserts punctuated by modern cities whose skylines seem to have risen overnight from the sand. The Hejaz in the west holds ancient pilgrimage routes; the oil-rich Eastern Province hums with industrial infrastructure; the Asir highlands in the south receive monsoon mist and grow terraced farms.
