Harrat Rahat
Harrat Rahat is a volcanic fields and historical area situated south of Harrat Khaybar in Al Madinah Region, Saudi Arabia. This vast lava field contains thousands of diverse archaeological structures, including wheels, pendants, and elongated triangular shapes. It also has primitive kites, considered less sophisticated and harmonious than those in Khaybar. Some elements in Harrat Rahat are notably large, like an early form of a kite nearly 4 km long, featuring a disproportionately elongated southern enclosure defined by a triangular structure.
