Description
🇸🇦 مرحبا بكم في الحجر
Welcome to Hegra
This model was created by 3D artist Marc Mons.
Qasr al-Farid, meaning “the lonely castle” in Arabic, is the largest tomb in the archeological site of Hegra (Ancient Greek: Ἕγρα, Arabic: ٱلحجر, romanized: al-Ḥijr), also known as Mada’in Salih (Arabic: مدائن صالح), in the Hejaz region of Saudi Arabia. Hegra was the southernmost and second largest city of the Nabataean Kingdom after Petra (modern-day Jordan), which was its capital. The site features more than 110 well-preserved Nabataean tombs carved into sandstone outcrops, Qasr al-Farid is the most known and largest of these carved tombs.
In 2008, UNESCO proclaimed Mada'in Salih as a site of patrimony, becoming Saudi Arabia's first World Heritage Site (from Wikipedia).
This detailed model was made by 3D artist Marc Mons and prepared for 3D printing in collaboration with MiniWorld3D.
