The Heritage Village in Dammam is one of the Eastern Province’s standout attractions, blending Saudi heritage, culture, and hospitality in one immersive setting. Spanning more than 21,000 square meters, the village showcases traditional Najdi-style architecture, carved wooden doors, mud-brick textures, and interior courtyards that echo the spirit of old Saudi homes. It’s a place to slow down, explore curated stories, and connect with the Kingdom’s diverse regions in a single visit.
Inside, you’ll find halls displaying rare artifacts and everyday objects from earlier decades: copper coffee pots, weaving looms, fishing gear, farming tools, and family heirlooms that trace local lifestyles before the oil era. Exhibits of traditional clothing and jewelry highlight regional diversity, while concise labels and photo panels give context so adults and children can see how each piece was used.
The experience extends beyond showcases. Restaurants and market stalls serve authentic Saudi dishes—from kabsa and jareesh to Gulf seafood—alongside Arabic coffee and dates. Courtyards offer traditional seating where families can relax, and seasonal activations bring handicrafts, storytelling, and folk performances to life. Teachers and researchers value the village as a living classroom for history and social-studies topics.
Centrally located in Dammam, the site is easy to reach by car or taxi, with nearby parking and other attractions a short drive away. It pairs naturally with a seaside walk, shopping, or sunset photos along the waterfront.
