Kharj

Saudi Arabia

This city suits travelers looking for a quiet, authentic Middle Eastern experience, not those seeking nightlife or big-city buzz. Best time to visit is November to February, when the weather is cool. Budget around 300-500 RMB per person. The city is small, with short travel times between areas. Must-visit: Kharj Castle and local market. Skip the city museum – it's basic and lacks engagement. Avoid parking on the street, as tickets are common.
