The tour includes a visit to Wadi Tabab and exploring the historic Abu Nuqtat Al-Mutahmi castles, which are distinguished by their unique architectural style and a location overlooking Wadi Tabab.

The tour also includes a visit to the stone castles, and the cafes and shops they contain.

Castles of the Abu Nuqta al-Mutahmi family in the historic village of Tabb.

Care for these castles began in 1418 AH in an initial phase aimed at preserving them from collapse and demolition. This care continued until 1441/12/27 AH, when the second phase of actual and serious restoration began and took approximately two years to complete.

These castles consist of six palaces and forts with their annexes, as well as a backyard that was once a barnyard for harvesting grain. Inside, there are eight cemeteries for storing barley and corn, which were also used at times to hide ammunition. The complex also includes forty-nine rooms of varying sizes and areas, in addition to an internal fortress that showcases traditional Asir architecture.

These castles were built by the ancestors and princes of the Al-Abu Nuqta Al-Mutahmi family and their descendants, may God have mercy on them, in the historic village of Al-Hadhn in Tabuk, which was known as the first capital of the Asir region. These castles carry within their walls a deep historical, cultural, and civilizational dimension and great stories that reflect the region's status and role. They have become a living witness to Asir's history and a tourist destination that visitors flock to learn about the region's past and authentic heritage.

The castles of Al Abu Nuqta Al Mutahmi are not just silent stones. They are the story of a civilization deeply rooted in Asir, and a tourist attraction that takes visitors on a journey between the ancient past and the bright present. The history of Tabuk represents the great history of these castles and forts, which have been the twins of Diriyah since the First Saudi State.
