Aizawl to Saudi Arabia

Aizawl stands tall on a ridge, which is bounded by the valley of the Tlawng River on its eastern side and a range of high craggy hills of Durtlang on the north. Serving as the capital of Mizoram, this remote Indian city is speckled with a good number of natural as well as man-made attractions. A number of accommodation options, in addition to roadways and airports for better transportation, have been suitably developed; thereby, making it an ideal hill station for spending vacations. Popular villages like Ruantlang, Falkawn, and Sairung are the best places where tourists can pay visits and get a detailed insight of the unique culture and lifestyle of the Mizos. Cultural Sub-Centre, Luangmual Handicrafts Centre and Berawtlang Tourist Complex are the most popular cultural attractions of the city. An ideal place for nature lovers here is the Mini Zoological Garden, where one can catch a glimpse of several common and rare species of mammals and birds. Those who want to get indulged in shopping while travelling Aizawl can head to Bara Bazar- a bustling marketplace that is quite popular in the whole state. Tourists can also plan for exciting recreation jaunts in places like Reiek Tourist Resort, Phawngpui Hills, Dampa, Vantawng Waterfall, Kolasib and Champhai.

The mystical land of Saudi Arabia boasts beautiful oases, psychedelic desert sunsets, dramatic mountaintops, endless sand dunes, apart from rich culture and heritage. Saudi Arabia’s two holiest cities, Medina and Mecca are the main destinations of the Hajj and Umrah pilgrimages that draw millions of Muslims every year. Riyadh, the capital is a curious combination of crumbling old and glittering new. Visit the Masmak Fort, Deera Square (where public executions take place), Imam Turki bin Abdullah Mosque, Red Sand Dunes, the Edge of the World, the Camel Trail and Ad Diriyah. At sunset, climb the Skybridge tower! Jeddah has the most beautiful Old Town in the Gulf. The Red Sea with great coastline and beaches is unmissable! Today, Jeddah is Saudi Arabia’s buzzing cosmopolitan hub, home to gleaming hotels and big-ticket events like the Red Sea International Film Festival. The city’s heart is still intact in Al Balad, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Abha offers spectacular mountains and colorful heritage villages, lush green hills, wild monkeys and some striking local architecture. Jizan has Yemeni-like culture and Fayfa and Absiyah, two gorgeous mountain villages. Al-Ula is a replica of Petra and Wadi Rum but without tourists. Meals in Saudi Arabia are rich, spiced, usually accompanied by rice or bread. Meat is an essential part of main meals, followed by sweet tea. Fuul (beans), Falafel, and Shawarma are diet staples, though not traditionally Saudi. This is but a taste of what awaits you in this elusive and mysterious country.
