Private Farms in Baha Revamped to Attract Tourists
In a bid to showcase agricultural tradition and cultural identity, several private farms in Baha have undergone extensive renovations by their owners. These revamped farms have become a magnet for tourists looking to experience the essence of rural life in Saudi Arabia.
Al-Mandaq Governorate Stands Out
Among the standout farms in Baha is Al-Mandaq Governorate, where farms and rural cottages have been beautifully restored to attract visitors. The region is dotted with lush trees and charming rustic houses that transport visitors to a bygone era.
Reviving Heritage Through Farm Restoration
One such farm owner, Othman Hassan Al-Zahrani, embarked on the journey to revive his farm back in 2022. He meticulously rebuilt the agricultural terraces and planted a diverse range of fruit-bearing trees, from pomegranates to blackberries. The farm now boasts a lush oasis of greenery that beckons visitors to explore.
Local Efforts in Line with Saudi Vision 2030
Many locals in Baha have followed suit by restoring their farms and turning them into tourist attractions. Their commitment to preserving local heritage aligns with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 and the Saudi Green Initiative, showcasing a sustainable approach to tourism development.
