Saiysad National Park is located in the northeast of the city of Taif and is one of the most important tourist areas in Saudi Arabia, characterized by its beautiful nature.
The park stands out as a nature reserve surrounded by mountains covered with dense trees and vast green areas, and it features natural springs.
The Sisid National Park is embraced by the convergence of a number of valleys of the region, such as Wadi Al Arj and Sisud Valley, along with the well-known Arj Valley.
The park got its name because of its connection to the famous archaeological dam of Sisd, which was built by the companion Muawiya bin Abi Sufyan in 677 AD.
The area was restored with its antiquities during 1998 AD, then it was opened to start receiving visitors in 1999.
