Saudi Arabia is placed as second biggest tourist attraction in the Middle East. In 2017, over 16 million visited the country. Most tourism in Saudi Arabia largely involves religious pilgrimages. But, there is also growth in the leisure tourism sector. The Saudi Govt is working to attract tourists other than pilgrimage tourists.
Potential tourist areas include the Hijaz and Sarawat Mountains, Red Sea diving and a number of ancient ruins. As per World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC), Travel and tourism in Saudi Arabia added 9% to the Kingdom’s total economy which is worth $65.2 billion in 2018, The top four places to visit in Saudi Arabia are Makkah, Mediana, Madain Saleh, Yanbu, Jeddah and Riyadh. There are 13 international airports in the country and 15 domestic airports in the country. There are domestic budget airlines like Flynas, Fyadeal, Nesma Airlines, in addition to Saudi Airlines and Saudi Gulf Airlines for domestic movements.
Saudi Arabia is a country in Western Asia. It has a land area of approximately 2,150,000 Square kilometers. The border of Saudi Arabia is shared by Jordan and Iraq in the north, Kuwait in the northeast, Qatar, Bahrain, and the United Arab Emirates in the east, Oman in the southeast and Yemen in the south; it is separated from Israel and Egypt by the Gulf of Aqaba. Most of terrain of the country consists of arid desert, lowland and mountains. As of October 2018, the Saudi economy was the largest in the Middle East and the 18th largest in the world.
The current area of Saudi Arabia was the site of several ancient cultures and civilizations. The prehistory of Saudi Arabia shows some of the earliest traces of human activity in the world. The world's second-largest religion, Islam, emerged in modern-day Saudi Arabia. In the early 7th century, the Islamic prophet Muhammad united the population of Arabia and created a single Islamic religious polity. Following his death in 632, his followers rapidly expanded the territory under Muslim rule beyond Arabia, conquering huge and unprecedented swathes of territory (from the Iberian Peninsula in the West to modern-day Pakistan in the East) in a matter of decades. Arab dynasties originating from modern-day Saudi Arabia founded the Rashidun (632–661), Umayyad (661–750), Abbasid (750–1517) and Fatimid (909–1171) caliphates as well as numerous other dynasties in Asia, Africa and Europe. The area of modern-day Saudi Arabia formerly consisted of mainly four distinct regions: Hejaz, Najd and parts of Eastern Arabia (Al-Ahsa) and Southern Arabia ('Asir). The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was founded in 1932 by Ibn Saud. He united the four regions into a single state through a series of conquests beginning in 1902 with the capture of Riyadh, the ancestral home of his family, the House of Saud. Saudi Arabia has since been a totalitarian absolute monarchy, effectively a hereditary dictatorship governed along Islamist lines. The ultraconservative Wahhabi religious movement within Sunni Islam has been called "the predominant feature of Saudi culture", with its global spread largely financed by the oil and gas trade. Saudi Arabia is sometimes called "the Land of the Two Holy Mosques" in reference to Al-Masjid al-Haram (in Mecca) and Al-Masjid an-Nabawi (in Medina), the two holiest places in Islam. The state's official language is Arabic. Petroleum was discovered on 3 March 1938 and followed up by several other finds in the Eastern Province. Saudi Arabia has since become the world's second largest oil producer (behind the US) and the world's largest oil exporter, controlling the world's second largest oil reserves and the sixth largest gas reserves. The kingdom is categorized as a World Bank high-income economy with a high Human Development Index and is the only Arab country to be part of the G-20 major economies. The state has attracted criticism for a variety of reasons including: its treatment of women, its excessive and often extrajudicial use of capital punishment, state-sponsored discrimination against religious minorities and atheists, its role in the Yemeni Civil War, sponsorship of Islamic terrorism, its failure to take adequete measures against human trafficking, state-sanctioned racism and antisemitism, its poor human rights record, and its strict interpretation of Sharia law. It is an active member of the the GCC, Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and OPEC. Tourism in Kenya is one of the leading sources of foreign exchange. Tourism in Kenya is the second-largest source of foreign exchange revenue following agriculture. The Kenya Tourism Board is responsible for maintaining information pertaining to tourism in Kenya. Beach tourism, eco-tourism, cultural tourism, and sports tourism are parts of the tourism sector in Kenya. Despite many attacks on tourists in the past history, tourism in Kenya is increasing. Due to political situations or trouble created by miscreants, the tourist turnover decreases also but overall it is in increasing order. There are many spots of tourist interests in Kenya. But it is advised to go to Kenya only after seeing and analysing the current situation in the country. It is must for your safety and security. "In Kenya, crime and terrorism are deeply linked, not least by the failure of successive Kenyan governments to control either." ...Giles Foden |
