RIYADH: Britain’s Prince William wrapped up the final day of his official visit to Saudi Arabia with a tour of AlUla, where he visited the Wildlife Conservation and Biodiversity Protection at Sharaan Nature Reserve.
Prince Badr bin Abdullah bin Farhan, the Saudi minister of culture, accompanied the 43-year-old heir to the British throne, an avowed environmentalist, during the tour. Prince William also met with rangers working to conserve the area’s wildlife population.
AlUla is home to the Hegra archaeological site, a UNESCO World Heritage site famed for its ancient Nabataean tombs dotted amid the pristine sandstone mountains and valleys.
Saudi authorities have been vastly working on in recent years to make AlUla a top-tier destination for luxury travelers and art exhibitions.
