The Heritage Village of Uyun Al-Jiwa, located in the northwestern part of Al-Qassim, is one of the most remarkable historical sites in the region. It holds great cultural importance as the ancient home of several Arab tribes and continues to preserve its authentic Najdi architectural identity built from mud, palm trunks, and traditional materials.
The village’s unique urban design reflects a tightly connected community, with narrow alleyways and interlinked houses forming a harmonious landscape reminiscent of traditional Najdi life. The old residential quarter features shaded courtyards, wooden doors, and clay walls that narrate centuries of heritage and craftsmanship.
Covering an area of nearly 6,000 square meters, the village has been carefully restored to maintain its historical charm. Several houses have been transformed into small museums displaying ancient household tools, cooking utensils, and farming equipment. Seasonal cultural festivals and traditional art performances are also held to celebrate and revive the spirit of the past.
