- Regional Info:
- Riyadh is the capital and largest city of Saudi Arabia. Offering all the usual advantages of a capital city in terms of retail outlets, shopping malls, cinemas, restaurants, sports/leisure centres, medical facilities and other services, the skyline is dominated by skyscrapers such as Sir Norman Foster’s Faisaliah Tower and the iconic Kingdom Tower – where the lifts take you at a speed of 130 mph up to a bridge suspended over the city. Riyadh is also a city of rich heritage and culture. The school is close to the Diriyah area on the northern outskirts of Riyadh where the story of modern Saudi Arabia began in January 1902 and home to an ambitious heritage development, including a beautiful collection of buildings in traditional Najd architecture. Riyadh is indeed a city of many contrasts and a fascinating place to live in. It is a city on the move and seeing rapid change – perceptions of Riyadh as a closed society are long outdated. The city is welcoming, multicultural, and vibrant. There is no better time to experience Riyadh’s development first-hand. Women no longer have to wear abayas and can travel freely on their own as well as drive.
