Elephant Rock

Elephant Rock rises from the golden sea of sand in Al Ula, Saudi Arabia, and is a highly recognizable natural geological landmark in the region. This red sandstone monolith stands more than 50m tall, roughly the height of a 10-story building, and was formed by millions of years of wind and sand erosion into its present shape: a massive body set among the dunes, with a pillar like an elephant's trunk that reaches the ground. From afar it resembles a giant elephant bending over the sea of sand, its contours astonishingly lifelike. The surrounding desert is also dotted with varied rock formations, such as human-face rock, mushroom rock, and rainbow rock, which together form a sweeping panorama of Al Ula's geological wonders.Saudi Arabia · Al Ula

A newly built ancient city, it's very interesting to walk around. There is a parking lot next to it, and there are free minibuses or eco-friendly cars to pick you up. It's actually very close, about ten minutes walk. There are Internet-famous restaurants here, but without accommodation, dinner is a bit inconvenient.

Very beautiful, a big rock shaped like an elephant. You can visit it. It is about 300 meters from Madinah.

An important leisure place for locals, you can grill and eat on the beach. The beach is a little bit unclean, but due to the hot climate here, the sea breeze after sunset is quite pleasant, especially after 5pm on Friday when there are more people. I sit on the blanket with my family and chat with them while bringing food.
