DIANA’S POINT “LIFE IS JUST A JOURNEY” – PRINCESS DIANA ‘Diana’s Point’, the most famous viewpoint on Al Jabal Al Akhdar is situated in the heart of the Resort. Although many local residents believe that Diana camped on this site for as long as two weeks, she came with Prince Charles on a six-hour day trip in November of Their Royal Highnesses, the Prince and Princess of Wales arrived by helicopter on the site of the Resort, which was at that time an untouched wilderness area. Charles spent most of the time painting the magnificent scenery in watercolours, while Diana read a book. Tracing their steps, we have chosen the most idyllic viewpoint to build a platform for Diana’s Point. As you stand timeless in the place where Diana once was, you can imagine her there and how she must have felt sublime in the grandeur of nature, just as you do. The ophiolite rock slabs on which Charles and Diana walked are laced with fossils more than 230 million years old, which no doubt would have attracted the keen interest of Charles, a passionate environmentalist.
