Al-Khobar
The Saudi Arabian city of Al-Khobar is a popular tourist destination. In the past, fishermen predominated in the little port city of Al-Khobar on the Arabian Gulf. An industrial port was created out of it. Oil was discovered there, and as time went on, it developed into the Eastern Province's commercial center. In accordance with a 1942 city design, the city is neatly split into residential squares that are evenly divided by highways. In addition to its industrial port, the city continues to serve small ships that carry passengers and cargo.
Al Khobar is one of the "Triplet Cities" in the Dammam metropolitan area and acts as the region's primary residential area. Due to the numerous beaches and beach resorts that are present there, Al Khobar is also regarded as a resort town. The city is teeming with activity and truly comes into its own at night. In the city of Khobar, you can discover some of the biggest malls in Saudi Arabia. Both locals and visitors enjoy shopping at malls like the Mall of Dhahran and the al-Rashid Mall.
