In the game
An anachronism: the present Old Town grew up c.12th century, when settlement moved from Dadan. In the 860s the main town in the valley was Qurh (al-Mabiyat), to the south, so the game’s 9th-century AlUla is a reconstruction.
History in brief
Walled town of some 900 mud-brick and stone houses, lived in from about the 12th century until the 1980s.
The place today
Partly restored lanes and shops; many houses are roofless ruins.
