Olives and olive oil were recommended by Prophet Muhammad (saws) in his time and they are proven to be extremely healthy. Personally I could eat olives every day in great quantities.

For more information about the olive production in the beautiful Al-Jawf province - one of the agricultural heartlands of KSA below:

Correction, there was a Palestinian Arab city by that name until it was annexed by Israel.

Well, KSA is one of the most visited countries in the region but that is mainly due to the hajj (Muslim pilgrims). That is because we have one of the strictest VISA regulations and that you cannot enter the country if you are not a GCC national unless you get invited by a citizen from KSA or travel in tourist groups once your trip has been cleared and visa issued.

So it is a bit difficult.

Well, KSA is a HUGE country. It depends on which region you want to visit. Some have pleasant climate all year long while others are very hot during summer and less so during spring and autumn. Winters can get cold in many places and especially nights.

Spring or autumn would be great choices. Even winter since most of the country retains its warm climate even during winter although you will not expect very high temperatures aside from certain areas in Hijaz and elsewhere.

Then we have to look up for people who could invite us??lol

Saudi Arabia Visa and Passport Requirements

As of now the country does not grant independent travelers any tourist visa but I believe that this will change in the near future.

Production of bananas and other tropical fruits are ancient in KSA but growing, especially in the South and West where they grow naturally.

It is very important to strengthen the Saudi Arabian agricultural sector even further since there is great potential.
I should really be part of the government.:D

What does pulling your leg mean exactly in English? That you were joking? What? You have family in KSA but never told.:tsk:o_O:o:

Ok, you better stay out if you are not ready since you can get eaten alive.

LOL, you just made me twice as old. Chill. Not THAT old YET. It will come. If I live that long. You never know.

Get eaten alive???:lol: Yes it means i am laughing at you're expense lol. Well they have been living there for quite sometime now but since they hardly come to Pakistan thats why i rarely get to meet them. But thats the only family i have got there. Most of them are dispersed across the globe. No i knew you can't be over 40 otherwise you wouldn't have the patience to engage with trolls with lengthy, mind boggling posts:D

I was pulling your leg as well when I wrote that.:D

Well, then it is time to invite them over or time for them to invite you over! I have the same problem with some relatives. They live across the world and some I don't really know that well. So I feel you.

Can't stop shaking my head seeing those pictures. Really, really, really beutiful!

You are very welcome. I am glad that you liked the photos.

Some more photos of olive cultivation in KSA.
