Amazing historical Castle This is a great place to spend 4 hours at it with friends and family Well organized No enough parking spots so you have to walk a short distance of 100 m It contains restaurants and cafes No toilet 😾 Overall you will enjoy 😉

Very nice historical place. Unfortunately Castle is locked and still under renovation. Highly place good view of the sea. Jan and feb weather is very pleasant.

Around 600 years old castle, carries age old memories of Saudi life. In 1930 the founding father of Saudi Arabia, HIs Highness King Saud has ordered for restoration to use it as a military base. The casle building materials teaches us how the old building have been built in the pre-concrete and steel era. Very beautiful place to visit. It is located on a hill top. So from there you can see the entire city view. The red sea from there looks so beautiful. Must visit with friends and family.

Amazing place, very good for photography

Nice view of the seashore and the city

Good place to visit. Needs professional efforts to make it as an attraction considering only historical facts

Unfortunately the castle itself is locked up and a lot of construction materials are lying around. I managed to push my mobile through the gap to get an interior pic. There’s no signposts in English or Arabic to say that the building is closed. The site itself is beautiful as you have views of Jazan and the ocean. The building is preserved but seems like over the years people have added graffiti in Arabic on the external walls which is a shame. I was surprised by the many phone masts which ruin the aesthetic of such a beautiful building. Gaining access to the site is very risky as there are live electrical wires and a lot of construction materials just lying around including rusty nails and steel rods sticking out from walls. I wouldn’t recommend going with children either as the external Walls surrounding the castle have child sized gaps which could be a potential health hazard! I hope the place is restored and lovingly cared for as it has so much potential and deserves to be maintained for future generations.

It is one of the best place to visit if you like to see the historic locations, the location roads are not paved and there is no guiding signs. Currently (Jul2020) the location is closed and under construction. And you are not allow to enter to the site. But the location is placed on a high mountain and you can see Gizan city panoramic view.

Nice to visit. Unfortunately you will not find an signs explaining each room or even the date and history of it.

I went to there at 3 pm , whole area was empty and the security guy said inside of the castle is always locked ,only outside is open for visitors

The Fort doors are locked. Can see from outside only. As it is on top of Mountain, complete Jazan city can be seen.

It's a place for people who love to visit historical places. The view of jazan town from the castle is awesome. Its a one time visit place. Wheelchair / stroller friendly.

Cool place to visit...its an ancient retreat in midst of modern chaos..we get a clear overlook of the city from this place..

Nice view to surrounding area. Empty, seems no possibility to visit inside.

Unfortunately it was closed during our visit but great from the spot.

it is historical place to vist in Jazan, you can see beautiful view around from there. It is now renovated

Quiet during the day, but for sure stunning city view at night while having a warm coffee from any coffee shop stalls around the area.

My only complaint is that the place is locked up.. I think they should let the public enter and explore the place. The scenery from up top is just beautiful especially the sunset.
