I welcome you to my traditional majlis to learn more about our authentic heritage, traditional clothing, customs, and traditions. Each time, I will introduce you to the heritage of a specific region in Saudi Arabia with its unique atmosphere, starting with wearing the traditional attire of that region and greeting you in its dialect. I will serve coffee in the traditional manner of the region, with special additions like dates and other accompaniments based on regional customs. For example, people from the north serve samah with dates and ghee, while those from the south serve sha'tha with dates, ghee, and dried yogurt (aqt). Each region has its unique way of offering hospitality, and I will explain these customs to you properly. I will describe the details of the traditional attire I am wearing, including the complete outfit, head covering, and jewelry, and provide the opportunity for guests to try on the attire and take photos as a souvenir. After that, we will serve dishes from the same region and introduce them, followed by serving tea in the traditional regional manner. Finally, we will present incense, and I will give the guests simple souvenirs along with a card explaining some details of the experience, including the attire and Saudi hospitality they experienced during the visit.
