كهف برمة, Natural cave system in Riyadh Province, Saudi Arabia
Barma Cave is a natural cave system in Riyadh Province with multiple tunnels and passages that extend through the underground network. The interior features various rock formations created by natural processes over a long period.
The cave was used by early inhabitants of the Arabian Peninsula thousands of years ago who carved inscriptions and animal figures into its walls. These markings come from a time when nomadic groups sought shelter in such underground spaces.
The site displays ancient carvings and inscriptions on its walls that show how people lived and communicated in the Arabian Peninsula long ago. These rock engravings tell stories about the animals and daily life that mattered to the early inhabitants of this region.
Visiting requires proper equipment and guidance from someone familiar with the underground environment, as the conditions can present unexpected challenges. Access is easier during cooler months when outdoor temperatures are less demanding.
A deep natural pit awaits at the cave's terminus after passing through a horizontal corridor of limestone formations. This hidden chamber is rarely accessed and often overlooked by visitors who do not venture to the end.
