The wonders of southern Saudi that IG keeps throwing up every now and then just never stop. One of the latest that’s being widely shared is of a massif (that’s a group of mountains) called Jabal Al-Qahar.

That’s a pretty weird name because it roughly translates to “Struggle Mountain.” Struggle or not, the peaks here are a thing of beauty.

Located about 80km to the northeast of Jizan, you’ll have wallpaper-worthy sights to take in almost everywhere you look.
