Saudi Arabia holds a special place in the hearts of Muslims around the world. If they visit Saudi Arabia, it is without a doubt that they will visit the Holy Kaabah and the Masjid e Nabawi. But did you know that the country also houses numerous must-visit tourist places that will leave you spellbound? Well, it does. If you ever decide to visit Saudi Arabia, make sure you add the following to your itinerary.
1. Wadi e Jinn
Wadi e Jinn is a touristic spot not because of its looks. The Wadi, it is said, belongs to the jinns. And you can see that when you take your car up the road. Even though the road slants up, when you switch off your car, it will continue moving, and that too, at a speed of 120km/h.
The scientists say the phenomenon is not supernatural. In fact, it can be explained by an optical illusion. Whatever the explanation may be, it qualifies to put Wadi e Jinn on our list. Wouldn’t you say so?
