Ad-Deborah, also known as the Al-‘Ula Heritage Village, is a Saudi Arabian village built over 800 years ago. The amazing part is that it was still inhabited until the 1980s.
Photographers, historians, and amateur archaeologists alike will be fascinated at how society was able to live in this village. The houses were constructed so closely together the outer ones form a protective wall. Ad-Deerah looks like a ghost town with its narrow alleyways. There are 1,000 mud-brick houses to explore, seemingly built one on top of the other. Take amazing photos of the old stairways, the marketplace, and empty doorways. For a better view climb the hill to the fortress overlooking the village to see the maze of winding streets.
Visitors and tourists enjoy watching the solar clock that measures the seasons. It is a stone planted into the ground in front of the pyramid building. The sun reaches the stone once a year in December.
