| Taif City Information |
| |
Driving along the winding roads to escape the steamy
heat of Jeddah or entering from the east away from the dry
desert clime of the Najd, visitors to Taif are greeted by a
fresh, cool breeze as they ascend to the city. Set in a
hollow between granite hills rising from the eastern slope
of the Hejaz in the southwest region of the Kingdom, this
city is a magnet that draws visitors from across Saudi
Arabia. |

The name Taif means ‘‘encompassing” in Arabic,
and for centuries visitors to this mountain city 5,600 feet
above sea level have enjoyed the captivating views from
wind-sculpted rocks, a pleasant climate and the verdant setting
of its surroundings, as well as the abundance of fruits which
grow in its fertile valley. Fragrant roses, lush parks, sunny
skies and exotic birds and wildlife have for generations drawn
families to this resort town each summer. Not only is Taif
popular among vacationers, but it has become the official summer
seat of the Saudi government. |
