Introducing Eastern Province
The Eastern Province is the centre of Saudi Arabia’s colossal oil industry and, as such, you’re more likely to live and work here than to visit. The province boasts the longest history of Westerners living and working in Saudi Arabia, and the sprawling satellite towns of Dammam, Al-Khobar and Dhahran are prosperous and relatively liberal.
