Al Muwayh

Travel Guide

(Al Wahbah crater) The mouth of the Al-Wa'bah locally called the mud quarry) is located in the desert of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, 254 km from Taif and on the western edge of the basalt plateau hills that contain many volcanic cones. This crater is the largest of its kind in the Middle East, with a diameter of 2 km and a depth of 250 meters and has a flat base covered by a thick crust of white sodium phosphate crystal. It was believed that the crater resulted from the fall of a meteorite, because its outer appearance resembles meteor craters in its circular shape and the height of its sides, but today geologists agree that the crater was formed by volcanic activity that led to an underground explosion that generates steam by the contact of molten rock with groundwater.
