Al-Shaq. This name means the tear (or rip) which makes sense as here the earth has been literally torn apart by tectonic forces. That is the reason why this place is also known as the Great Canyon of Saudi Arabia, and it’s located in the Tabuk region between Jabal Hesma & Wade Qaraqir close to Shiqry village. Take a foot walk and check out the ledge of NEOM. An overhang offers a perfect perspective for a souvenir picture. You can also check out the famous lion mountain as a mountain resembles like the face of a lion.
