The Archaeological Site of Al-Hijr
石谷考古遗址（玛甸·沙勒）
Al-Hijr site is among the most famous archaeological and architectural complexes in Saudi Arabia, dating back to Nabatean civilization. The ancient city is second in importance after the capital city of Petra and is mentioned in the Qur'an. The complex occupies an area of over 16,000 acres and includes more than one hundred rock tombs, numerous rock paintings and sculptures, as well as the ruins of city walls and buildings. In 2008 the complex was listed as a World Heritage by UNESCO.
玛甸·沙勒遗址是沙特阿拉伯最著名的考古学建筑群，发源于纳巴泰文明时期。这座古城重要性仅次于佩特拉古城，并且在《古兰经》上也能找到相关记载。此建筑群占地超过1.6万英亩，包括超过100座的岩石古墓、大量的岩壁画、雕刻以及城墙和城中建筑的遗址。2008年，这一建筑群被联合国科教文组织列入世界遗产名录。
