The UNESCO World Heritage Site is renowned for its striking monumental tombs. The "Hegra After Dark" experience takes you on an immersive journey of enticing flavours, captivating storytelling, and illuminated spectacle We ride in chariots into an amber sunset of the stunningly beautiful AlUla in Saudi Arabia. The clouds of dust raised by the horses blur the silhouetted sandstone cliffs. As complete darkness envelops, the iconic Hegra tomb comes into view, surreal and glowing in the radiance of a myriad lamps. Standing alone, proud and regal, the magnificent Qasir al-Farid tomb stands for all that Hegra was: a true representative of the Nabataean Kingdom that left invaluable impressions on the annals of history, more than two thousand years ago. Hegra is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its spectacular monumental tombs. During the “Hegra After Dark” show, we are taken on a journey of captivating flavours and fragrances, fascinating storytelling and illuminated spectacles. What we see during the day comes alive after dusk. It’s an exhilarating narrative journey where you are close to the actors and in the heart of the plot.
