Why Travelers Visit Khamis Mushait
Khamis Mushait is Abha's larger, adjacent twin city in the Asir highlands — home to the historic Souq Al-Khamis (Friday Market) the city is named after, an Ottoman-era fort, and a long-standing role as a regional aviation and military hub. It shares Abha's cooler mountain climate and makes a practical base for exploring the wider Asir region.
