Rijal Almaa governorate, Administrative division in southwest Saudi Arabia
Rijal Alma Governorate extends across mountainous terrain with stone buildings perched on slopes overlooking the Kussan Valley and Red Sea coast.
The region functioned as a significant trade center connecting Yemen and the Levant to Makkah and Medina for over nine centuries.
The heritage museum in Al Al-wan Palace contains two thousand artifacts displaying local history through nineteen dedicated exhibition sections.
Travelers access the region through Abha International Airport, located 134 kilometers from the governorate center, with Route 211 connecting major cities.
The governorate contains sixty multi-story stone structures rising up to eight levels, featuring colored wooden windows and traditional Al-Qatt wall decorations.
