Riyadh, which lies in the Central Region,
is the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and now rivals any
modern city in the world in the splendor of its architecture. Broad
highways sweep through the city, passing over or under each other in an
impressive and still growing road network. Trees now bedeck the broad
streets and avenues, giving pleasure to passers-by and shade to those
who linger beneath them. Today the city extends for some 600 square
miles (1600 square kilometers) and has a population of more than 5.8 million.The name Riyadh
is derived from the Arabic word meaning a place of gardens and trees
("rawdah"). With many wadis (a former water course, now dry) in the
vicinity, Riyadh has been since antiquity a fertile area set in the heartland of the Arabian peninsula.
Of all the Kingdom's developmental achievements, Riyadh is perhaps the most obvious and accessible to the foreign visitor. From the moment he lands at the King Khalid International Airport,
itself a marvel of design wedding the traditional Arab style with the
best of modern architecture in a happy marriage of spacious
practicality, the traveler is aware that he has reached a city that
must be counted one of the wonders of modern times.

Arabian desert brimming with culture, history, exquisite
architecture and an exotic feel and opulence that is bound to
enchant just about any visitor. Modern Riyadh has retained its
ancient heritage and travellers can revel in the many shopping and
sight-seeing opportunities this city has to offer.

late winter to spring from October to April when there is little to
no precipitation and the average temperatures are still invitingly
warm. The city is known for its evening thunderstorms that cool the
city down just long enough for the night to come to life. Many
locals escape the heat of the scorching hot summers by taking
breaks in cooler parts of the world.

anyone with a keen interest in ancient civilizations, ruins and
Saudi Arabian kingdoms. Shopaholics will also have a field day in
