The Power of Water

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

lundi 9 juin 2025 • Durée 55:39

Before the modern city of AlUla rose to prominence, its natural springs and water systems were at the heart of its existence. For centuries, AlUla's oasis has been a critical stop on the Incense Road, connecting cultures and trading routes across the Arabian Peninsula. Water, both from the sky and the earth, has sustained life here, and its management has shaped both the landscape and the people.

In this episode, we step back in time and explore the ancient wells, oases, and water systems that have supported AlUla for millennia. We’ll see how the inhabitants of this region once relied on camels and complex water systems to survive in the desert, and witness a reenactment that celebrates the founding of the ancient city of Tayma. Along the way, we’ll discover how AlUla’s connection to water continues to influence its art, culture, and life today.

Recorded on location in immersive surround sound, this episode transports you directly to the heart of AlUla, where history, nature, and culture come together in perfect harmony.

The Adventure of Air

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

lundi 9 juin 2025 • Durée 01:00:08

“I'm dangling 250-feet above a canyon, and I'm about to get dropped. This is what AlUla is all about. It's got desert treasures, it's got 200,000 years of history, but it's also got adventure. And we're going to start ours by soaring through the air. Are you ready? Let's do this …”

Aaron Millar, host

In this series, we’re going to take you on a journey into the heart of one of the most ancient kingdoms on Earth. Located in the northwestern corner of Saudi Arabia, Alula is an oasis in the desert layered in 200,000 years of human history.

But, until recently, it was closed to outsiders, and to this day only a handful of visitors have ever been. In this immersive documentary, recorded on location, we’ll take you to the heart of one of the great wonders of Arabia and give you a glimpse of what it feels like to be there for real.

Each episode in the series explores the destination through the lens of a different element: the heritage of Earth, the community of Water, and today: the adventure of Air.

Highlights include:

Flying over the UNESCO world heritage site of Hegra in a hot air balloon – only a handful of people have ever visited this ancient city. Even less have seen it from the sky.

Climbing via ferrata to the top of a 250-foot canyon and then screaming all the way down.

Off-roading on sand dunes through one of the most deserts in the world.

Stargazing with Bedouins and hearing their legends of the stars, which they used as a map to guide them through one of the most inhospitable places on Earth.

The Heritage of Earth

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

lundi 9 juin 2025 • Durée 41:40

“… it’s incredible to get that picture of watching the caravans arrive on the horizon, and you don't know what they're going hold. You don't know what mysteries. People with strange languages, different clothes, and different smells. And they set up around the fire at night and play music you've never heard before; tell stories you've never heard before …”

Highlights include:

Exploring the ancient city of Hegra. Built by the same people who built Petra in Jordan, Hegra is every bit as spectacular but only visited by a handful of intrepid travelers.

Visiting Jebel Ikmah, a library of ancient inscriptions carved into stone that reveal life in the desert more than 2,000 years ago.

Riding Arabian horses to petroglyphs in the desert (and nearly falling off).

Meeting a herd of overly friendly camels, with a taste for microphones.

Learning from rawis, local storytellers, about the history of the incense road, a vast trading route, which passed through Alula, and changed the face of Arabia forever.
