Upon visiting the Namas Governorate, Al-Muqarr Palace stands majestically, transporting you on a journey through time to the Alhambra in Granada, from which it draws much of its design, decorations, and engravings. Wandering through Al-Muqarr Palace, you might feel as if you are drifting among celestial bodies at one moment, and exploring world civilizations at another, surrounded by the wonders and intricacies of the world. The exterior features seven domes representing the world's continents, while inside, it stands on 365 columns, symbolizing the days of the year, with large, encircling windows allowing sunlight to visit its halls throughout the day.
The palace houses an extensive collection of artifacts, antiques, and ancient manuscripts, notably one thousand manuscripts of the Holy Quran. It flaunts its Andalusian heritage with intricate carvings and decorations made from the scattered stones of Aseer. Each floor represents a specific historical era, rich with numerous heritage pieces, manuscripts, and a wealth of information.
Al-Muqarr Palace offers a splendid choice for those wishing to blend civilization with heritage, in a place that breathes beauty atop the verdant mountains of Aseer. Here, tourists can find diverse accommodation options, savor cuisine, and purchase fresh fruits or memorable gifts.
