Green Mountain (Al Jabal Al Akhdar)
الجبل الأخضر
A small hill beside the city centre, with a viewing platform, restaurant and café at the summit overlooking the whole city; at night it is famous for its green lights.
Green Mountain is a small hill south of central Abha, with a viewing terrace, restaurant and café at the top. At night the entire hill is lit up in green, visible from across the city. From the summit you can look over Abha's urban area and the night view of the dam lake. Summer evenings are cool, so local families often come here for picnics. You can drive up the mountain, and admission is free.
