Saudi Arabia has become one of the favourite place for tourism within a year. The target of 100 million visits until the year 2030 looks a very small target looking at the number of visas granted. The country is not only pilgrims to perform Umrah and Hajj. But there are many big events including sports, concerts and other festivals.
