Nature enthusiasts will be more interested in exploring the picturesque Yanbu Lakes Park located in the immediate vicinity of Medina. This park was formed around a series of beautiful lakes. These places are among the most picturesque in the region. Beautiful park areas are formed around the reservoirs. Here you can walk in the shade of slender palm trees and enjoy the peaceful water surface. Interesting landscape compositions are created on the lakeshores every year, and this is a great opportunity to take some spectacular pictures.
Nearby is another picturesque park called Al Fairouz. It is relatively small but still striking with a variety of interesting decorative plants and original landscape compositions.
