Discover Saudi Arabia

The capital of Saudi Arabia is Riyadh, a major administrative, economic, and cultural hub in the heart of the Arabian Peninsula, known for its rapid development, contrasting traditional feel, and significant modern infrastructure including skyscrapers and a new metro system. Located at the intersection of the Wadis Hanifa and Al-Batha, the city’s name means “gardens” or “meadows” due to its historically fertile land, though it is now a vibrant metropolis that blends historical charm with modern architecture and is the ancestral home of the House of Saud.
