Al-Meger Palace
Nestled in Asir’s Al-Namas governorate, Al-Meger Palace — a museum that is home to some of the oldest manuscripts from Islamic history — is the work of a lifetime of Mohammed Al-Meger, a former Saudi military officer whose parents were known intellectuals. Orphaned at an early age, he attended school for three years before he was expelled. He then worked as a shepherd until an uncle from Tabuk agreed to help him go back to school when he was 14. Unable to fulfill his dream of becoming a doctor, he opted to join Saudi Arabia’s armed forces, which gave him the chance to learn the French and English languages, and the opportunity for more travel. When he visited his hometown of Al-Namas once more, he came up with the idea of building the palace. It took 35 years to complete the project, which is now considered a "convergence of world cultures."
What is Calligraffiti?
“Calligraffiti is a fusion of Arabic calligraphy and graffiti art,” says Saudi artist Ahmed Al-Sulaimani, whose work has captured the attention of art enthusiasts and opened doors to remarkable opportunities, including the chance to design Arabic signage for the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
