The artificial reservoir known as the Lake of Jazan Dam is located in Wadi Jizan about 16 km (9.9 miles) northeast of Abu Arish in Jizan province in southwestern Saudi Arabia. Built in 1970, a dam in the desert collects runoff and stores it for periodic discharge downstream. The reservoir has several purposes including irrigation and flood control. . On the shores of the lake there are several recreation areas and parks. One of them, Alsad Park, we were offered to visit. . .

Al-Dossaria Castle is located on the city of Jazan’s highest peak, overlooking the Red Sea. It was built in a square shape over an area of 900 square meters, and consists of two floors, four cylindrical towers and foundations that were recently reinforced. . . . The floors and towers have several openings that were used for military purposes, while the southern and western barricades were added to serve as the first line of defense for the main structure, which sits 250 meters above sea level. .
