Résumé

Résumé : For nearly a thousand years, AlUla's Old Town in Saudi Arabia has sustained a rich, uninterrupted history, safeguarding its traditional way of life through extensive conservation projects. The Dar Tantora hotel exemplifies these efforts, seamlessly blending heritage with a forward-looking approach. AlUla Old Town: An Oasis of Heritage chronicles the transformation of a section of AlUla Old Town into a luxurious eco-lodge, beautifully captured by Oliver Pilcher's photography. The AlJadidah area within the Old Town thrives as a cultural and culinary hub, boasting a lively art scene and vibrant market stalls. Nestled just minutes away from the natural abundance of the AlUla Oasis, the Old Town offers a unique opportunity for visitors to immerse themselves in a bygone era, living in harmony with both nature and history.
Biographie : Dr. Abdullah bin Adam Saleh Naseef was born in AlUla and received intermediate and secondary certificates from the Saudi Scientific Institute in Madinah, a bachelor of arts from King Saud University, Riyadh, and a Ph.D. from the faculty of arts, University of Manchester, UK, with a focus on the ancient monuments of the Arabian Peninsula. He has written numerous books on this subject, including An Historical and Archaeological Survey of Al-Ula with Special Reference to Its Irrigation System (1988).

Born in Scotland, Oliver Pilcher studied sculpture at the Edinburgh College of Art before embarking on a photographic career, which has taken him all around the world and given him the opportunity to shoot for some of the world’s finest brands. Oliver has been a contributing photographer at Condé Nast Traveler for over ten years. He currently divides his time between New York and Costa Rica with his wife, Abigail, and their four children, Andalucia, Bianca, Constantina and Herbie. He previously worked with Assouline on the best-selling Paris Chic (2020) and New York Chic (2023) and has contributed photos to Louis Vuitton Manufactures (2022), Riva Aquarama (2022), Saudi Coffee (2023), Saudi Dates (2023), Camels from Saudi Arabia (2024) and Falcons from Saudi Arabia (2024).
