The Saudi Commission for Tourism and National Heritage and King Saud University has started restoration work on Al-Faw Village, one of the most significant archaeological sites in the Kingdom.
Qaryat Al-Faw, located in the foothills of the Tuwayq Mountains near the present day village of Wadi ad-Dawasir, 700 kilometers southwest of Riyadh, was an important commercial station linking the Arabian Gulf to the Levant. It became a religious, political and cultural center in the Arabian Peninsula and the capital of the Kindah Kingdom.
