Many Saudi families still maintain traditiona­l attire and encourage their children to learn more about the clothing of their forebears.

Photograph­er Afnan Al-Samhan captured this award-winning image of a child in Taif province wearing traditiona­l dress. The photo was one of the winning images in the Colors of Saudi Contest. Taif is famous for its magnificen­t tourist attraction­s such as museums, parks, flea markets, fruits, roses and aromatic flower farms, as well as cultural attraction­s such as Souk Okaz, which has been improved by the National Authority for Tourism and National Heritage through the organizati­on of the Souk Okaz Festival during the past few years.
