Things to do in Taif Airport
Ta'if sits at 1,800m elevation in the Hejaz mountains, making it significantly cooler than the Saudi lowlands — a traditional summer retreat for Saudis. The city is famous for its rose gardens and rose water production (Taif roses are distilled for attar perfume), and the rose season in spring is spectacular. The Al-Shafa and Al-Hada mountain resort areas offer pleasant cool weather and scenic escarpments.
