When we were in Hofuf, we asked our driver if he knew how to get to the famous Hofuf caves. No, he shook his head, no caves here. Oh well, we would just look around the town, I said. As we drove, about ten minutes later, the driver's face lit up and he said he knew of a great place for us to visit, that had tunnels through a mountain.
So we went to the Hofuf caves after all, which are carved into sandstone walls. It is called Jebel Gara, or Mountain with Tunnels, and reminded us all of Bryce Canyon and Zion Canyon in the Southeast US.
Jack was convinced that there were dinosaurs in these caves, and he searched every part on the lookout for a T-Rex or stegosaurus.

ReplyDeleteLove that place, was born there (but not a citizen), lived there for 5 years, really pretty "sandscape." It's a sandy paradise we said... too bad I don't live there anymore!
