On the old Jeddah-Makkah road lies Hudaybiyyah, where the historic treaty was signed.
The Site
- Masjid Al-Shumaisi: Built near the original location of the tree where the pledge (Bay'at al-Ridwan) took place.
- Ruins: You can see foundations of an older Ottoman-era structure.
The Camel Milk Experience
The road to Hudaybiyyah is famous for Camel Farms.
- Experience: You pull over. The bedouin milks the camel right in front of you into a bowl/bottle.
- Taste: Warm, frothy, and slightly salty. It is a superfood.
- Cost: 10-20 SAR for a bowl.
- Warning: Drink it at your own risk if you have a weak stomach (unpasteurized).
