Diriyah - A City that Holds the History of Saudi Arabia

Diriyah was established after Mani bin Rabia al-Muraidi came from a small town near Qatif to fertile land on the banks of Wadi Hanifa. It takes you back to the history of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia through its old roads, unique natural components, and heritage landmarks. Diriyah became famous as the capital of stability, security, and prosperity. It is located on the banks of Wadi Hanifah, northwest of Riyadh, to be a world-class cultural suburb. Diriyah holds museums in its old buildings to give you a glimpse into the past. Diriyah has gained a historical and heritage status, and in 2010, At-Turaif District was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site. From the diverse nature to the stunning architecture, visitors go to Diriyah to spend a great time in its parks, where there are seasonal events, folk performances, markets, and restaurants with an authentic traditional style.
