It's exhilarating just to go to Taif. A picturesque serpentine route runs through the mountains from Makkah's inner city to the plateau where Taif is located, passing through fruit shops, rose plantations, and deep gorges. Because of the famous scented flowers that thrive in the surrounding valleys and mountains, Taif is known as the City of Roses. It is also regarded as Saudi Arabia's unofficial summer capital.
Taif is a cool respite from the summer heat due to its elevation, notably in the neighboring Shafa Mountains, where baboons frolic in front of crumbling valleys. The Okaz Market Festival and the Crown Prince Camel Festival, which are the city's biggest attractions, bring the city to life in August. Taif offers a diverse range of activities, including culture, history, and entertainment.
Renting a vacation chalet will save you money on your vacation. The advantages of living in a chalet rather than a hotel seem clear given the abundance of room and kitchen facilities where you may buy and prepare your own food. This benefit is the key reason why many tenants prefer a chalet to a hotel for their vacation.
The chalets are distinctive not only in their architecture but also in the fact that they are situated in naturally beautiful settings with stunning views, allowing you to select the amenities that will make your trip truly memorable. For example, some inhabitants require a heated pool or jacuzzi, while others prefer an outdoor garden with grills. You will be able to discover a site with all of the amenities you require if you look through the ads for chalets on Ootlah.
The Istiraha, or chalet, is a place where you can spend a few days. If you plan on remaining in a location for a few days, an Istiraha or chalet is the ideal alternative. What's the rationale for this?
The cost of renting a chalet in Al Taif is extremely low, and there are various Istiraha for rent at reasonable rates near all tourist attractions.
Chalets are less priced than hotels and, in certain situations, provide comparable or superior amenities. Chalets with private pools and other facilities are available as well.
Take the twisting roads to Mount Dhaka, Taif's highest peak, for panoramic vistas and off-road activities, or visit the gorgeous Saiysad National Park. A visit to the Shubra Palace allows visitors to follow in the footsteps of King Abdulaziz: the marble-floored structure was once a royal dwelling and is now a museum.
Discovering the city's culinary offerings is one of the nicest things to do in Taif. Visit Ahlan Sahlan, famed for eating scoops of rice and chicken like the locals; Grilled for the greatest charcoal-grilled meats, if you're seeking fantastic eateries to dine at. Safi for Middle Eastern cuisine; or Al Diwaniyah Cafe in a traditional setting for Arabic coffee, dates, and silik.
It's an adventure just to get to Taif. Visitors journey through the mountains on a meandering road, past fruit markets, rose fields, and deep valleys along the way, before arriving at the plateau where Taif is located. Taif is renowned as the Rose City because of the many fragrant flowers that thrive in the surrounding wadis and mountains. It's also known as the unofficial summer capital of Saudi Arabia. Taif offers a refreshing respite from the heat due to its elevation. While the roses bloom in April, August is when the city truly blooms, with the Souq Okaz cultural festival and the Crown Prince Camel Festival in full swing.
