Riyadh
Embrace the Vibrant Capital of Saudi Arabia
Embrace the Vibrant Capital of Saudi Arabia
Riyadh is the captivating capital of Saudi Arabia, where history, culture and modernity seamlessly intertwine. It is the peninsula’s hub for business, finance and government.
The city grew from a small oasis settlement into the capital of the First Saudi State in the late 18th century, and expanded under the Al Saud dynasty. Its skyline now carries the Kingdom Centre Tower and the King Abdullah Financial District. Dining is just as varied: international kitchens alongside Saudi dishes such as Mandi and Kabsa.
