Hofuf Caves

The Hofuf caves are impressive.  The government has built walkways so that you may explore inside and there are guards protecting them.  There is some graffiti on them but not much.  They are worth the drive to see both the inside and the outside.  You can climb on the top of them and get a great view of the date farms in this oasis.  Be careful of the holes that just randomly appear and drop to the bottom of the caves.

Jebels

Jebels are large rock outcroppings.  They look like mini mountains. They are limestone formations that are being worn down by the elements. They are seen all over in this region of Saudi Arabia.
