Taif, a cool mountain retreat in western Saudi Arabia, famed for hillside rose fields, rose oil and a refreshing climate.

📍 Destination Overview

Taif, a mountain city about 1,800 meters up in the Sarawat Mountains of western Saudi Arabia, enjoys a cool climate far from the lowlands' heat and is a celebrated summer retreat. Its fame rests on the Damask rose: each spring hillside fields bloom, and locals distill precious oil through old techniques, earning it the name City of Roses. Orchards grow pomegranates and grapes.
