Al-Ardah is a dance of war and peace. It was used as an art of war, especially when King Abdulaziz Al-Saud unified the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Nowadays, it is held in various festive occasions. The Saudi Ardah attracted Arab historians and writers such as the well-known writer Abbas Mahmoud Al-Aqqad. The dance was added to the list of UNESCO World Intangible Heritage in 2015.
