Explore Al-Hasa Oasis, Saudi Arabia (UNESCO Site)
Al-Hasa is the largest oasis in Saudia Arabia and all of Asia (encompasses 30,000 acres (12,000 hectares)) and has around 3 million date palms. The oasis is located about 60 km inland from the Persian Gulf. The area is also known as Al-Ahsa.
Al-Hasa has been inhabited since prehistoric times, due to its abundance of water in an otherwise arid region. Natural fresh-water springs have surfaced at oases in the region for millennia, encouraging human habitation and agricultural efforts (date palm cultivation especially) since prehistoric times. Recently, Al-Ahsa Oasis has nominated as one of the seven wonders of the world.
