Riyadh, the Kingdom’s bustling capital, is a vibrant blend of tradition and modernity. From iconic landmarks such as the Kingdom Centre and Al Faisaliah Tower to historic sites like the UNESCO-listed At-Turaif District, Riyadh offers a unique mix of old and new. The city’s rapidly growing arts, dining, and shopping scenes, along with initiatives like Vision 2030, position it as a global hub for culture, commerce, and innovation. Upcoming projects like the FIFA 2034 World Cup and King Salman Park will further solidify Riyadh’s status as a global destination.
