But despite its fanciful name, Qasr al-Farid is only a tomb. It was carved out of a single rock sometime in the first century A.D., but its facade was never finished which makes the tomb an interesting study. The heavily chiselled surface of the lower third documents how these tombs were fashioned from the top down. Qasr al-Farid is just one of ninety-odd such monumental tombs carved here during the heyday of the Nabataeans.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6131697/2e554f36-2f3a-4311-b5e3-5bbbfdb1ed9e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Hegra ![Just caught the sun set in Aqaba, Jordan ](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/3000652763/5e17f08e-455a-454e-8b71-6f46c660380a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Umluj ## Frequently asked questions ### Is Al-'Ula worth visiting? ### How do I spend a day in Al-'Ula? ### What is the top tourist attraction in Al-'Ula? ### Is three days enough to stay in Al-'Ula? ### What are some activities to do in Al-'Ula with kids? > - [Visiting the Incredible Heritage Site Hegra in AlUla.](https://expedia.com/things-to-do/visiting-the-incredible-heritage-site-hegra-in-alula.a49084513.activity-details) > - [Al Ula: Dadan and Jabal Ikmah Tombs Guided Tour](https://expedia.com/things-to-do/al-ula-dadan-and-jabal-ikmah-tombs-guided-tour.a51900802.activity-details) > - [Tour AlUla's Old Town](https://expedia.com/things-to-do/tour-alulas-old-town.a49190641.activity-details) > - [Explore AlUlas Ancient Civilizations Dadan and Jabal Ikmah Tour](https://expedia.com/things-to-do/explore-alulas-ancient-civilizations-dadan-and-jabal-ikmah-tour.a51011061.activity-details) > - [Hegra Al Ula: Sunrise Hot Air Balloon Flight](https://expedia.com/things-to-do/alula-sunrise-hot-air-balloon-flight.a47668477.activity-details) ### What to do in Al-'Ula for adults? ### Are there free things to do in Al-'Ula? ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - Lodging - Flights - Packages - Cars - Vacation Rentals - [Hotels near Jebel Khuraibah ](https://www.expedia.com/Jebel-Khuraibah-Hotels.0-l553248621532391441-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Hotels near Al'Ula Old Town ](https://www.expedia.com/AlUla-Old-Town-Hotels.0-l553248621532391442-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Hotels near Qasr al-Farid ](https://www.expedia.com/Qasr-Al-Farid-Hotels.0-l553248621532391443-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) - [Hotels near Al-'Ula Intl.
