Aseer Region’s Coastal Plains Attract Visitors during Colder Season

As temperatures gradually drop along the coastal area of Aseer region and rain continues to fall, the coastal plains have become a popular destination for nature enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers. One sought-after place is Al-Hejri plain, located north of Bareq Governorate, which offers a breathtaking panorama of clouds gracefully draping over the surrounding mountains. The scene is often illuminated by flashes of lightning, creating a captivating atmosphere that heralds the arrival of the region's peak tourism season. Al-Hejri plain is a haven for biodiversity, boasting a rich tapestry of acacia trees, other plant species, and a diverse array of resident and migratory birds and animals. It is home to one of Aseer's largest natural parks, which spans 250,000 square meters. The park features lush green spaces, playgrounds, a theater, shaded seating areas, football fields, and walking paths, offering visitors a variety of recreational activities. Beyond the plain, Tharban Mountain, located west of Majarda h Governorate, provides a stunning backdrop. Renowned for its unique aromatic plants like thyme and basil, the mountain fills the air with a delightful fragrance. Its abundant vegetation makes it a vital destination for livestock herders and beekeepers throughout the year. Source: Saudi Press Agency
