The area, which is located about 25 Km from the museum, to the north of the city is dominated by an outcrop. Cemeteries from both Iron Age as well as Early Bronze Age are located on top and foothills of the outcrop. The surrounding area of Bida Bint Saud witnessed an Iron Age occupation represented by the discovery of a mudbrick structure. An irrigation system (falaj) was uncovered in the region indicating that the region was no less important than larger oases. Bida Bint Saud is quite popular and worth a visit, especially, in the late afternoon. Seeing the tombs and watching the sun set from the top is of a romance. The paved road runs across red sand dunes, which are still scenic despite the recent change.
