Exploring the region and museum

Buraidah and the surrounding expanse of historic towns, villages and settlements provide many intriguing day-trip opportunities. One stop should include a visit to the Aloqilat Museum. This historic site features over ten thousand rare documents related to the first people who lived in the region - as well as the tools and commercial maps used to navigate the surrounding area and beyond. Spending a day at the museum should provide an absolutely unique opportunity to learn more about the region and culture – and because there is so much to see, it is recommended that visitors carve out at least 4-5 hours of time to explore the entire site.
