Halaban

Halaban lies in the western part of the al-Quwayiyah country, on the high interior route across Najd. The surrounding landscape contains wadis and rocky uplands, with traces of old habitation and mineral working. At Faydat Halaban, remains of buildings record earlier activity in the district. The settlement stands west of ar-Rayn and ar-Ruwaydah, toward the more open country of Afif.
