In northwestern Saudi Arabia, there is a town called AlUla, which has the roughest surface landscape – a wild desert and coarse and strangely shaped rock and sand mountains.

Far from the city and sparsely populated, AlUla seems to be a place that existed only in the ancient Arabian mythology “One Thousand and One Nights”, with a strong Middle Eastern mystery.

As if stepping into this land, it will automatically disappear in the vast desert.

In short, this is a “do not approach” forbidden place.

However, recently, this place has suddenly become a big hit on the Internet, attracting countless people to go, why? Because a very amazing hotel is about to open here – Sharaan Hotel.

The hotel, which will be opened in a few years, is located in the heart of AlUla, and the whole hotel uses the landscape of AlUla itself as its facade, so if you just look at it from the outside, you won’t find a hotel here.

But when you turn on the God view, you will definitely have a feeling of discovering a new underground world:

Designed by French architect Jean Nouvel, the underground hotel is approximately 80 meters deep, with 40 rooms, 3 resort villas, and 14 private pavilions evenly distributed around a central elevator shaft.

Everything, everything is very modern, but these modern is you do not enter the hotel can not feel the authentic, because the entire hotel is embedded in the rock interior, from the outside, this is simply “wild animals live in the place”, but also the kind of live rough wild animals.

After all, this kind of unpolished rock and sand mountain really makes people have no desire to live here.
