Please buy tickets in advance! Lovely area, filled with restaurants and cafes. Highly recommend going there, and having a coffee in the evening at Angelina’s with a view of the Diriyah lit up.
One of the most beautiful and amazing places you would ever visit in Riyadh, it’s a must!
To all tourists.. don’t miss it out !

The best part is the ambience, cafe, and sea view. Good destination for coffee and dinner.
I am Thai and I love living in 🇸🇦. It is very nice place. Saudi people are SO kind. I wish we can live here forever.
The architecture manages to tread the fine line between modern and heritage, with out being crass or boring.
The stainless steel tubing that forms much of the interior and exterior shell reminds me of drill strings, I'm unsure if that's intentional or not.

The entire building has plenty of amenities and is well signed throughout.

If you want to enjoy your time in Al Khobar, you should definitely visit Aidan Walk.
A place full of fancy restaurants and cafes.

You will enjoy every moment there. What I liked about it is that it doesn’t have any kind of things that will let you down.

One pf the oldest mosques in madinah. Have a small area of prayer for both men and women. It is rarely opened for visitors. Very near to masjid al nabawi, just straight from gate 309 and 310. You will also find zam zam water at these gates.

Amazing place to spend some good time with the family over a dinner
Mosque of Al-Ghamamah (Arabic: مسجد الغمامة) is one of the oldest mosques in Medina, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is located south west of Masjid  Nabawi and also bear toMasjid Nabawi gate no 310/311 Madinah, KSA. Prophet Mohammed (SAW) prayed eid-ul fitr and eid-ul Adha there. Prophet Mohammed (SAW) also prayed salat ul-Istasqa for rain. SubhanAllah afterwards it did rain. Supplicants and tourists are trying to visit it and pray two rakat “Tahiyatul masjid'' salat.The mosque is one of the historical relics of Medina. I paid to visit it on 05 January 2024 at evening and prayed two rakat Tahiyatul masjid salat. It is open at 10:00 hours and closed at 00:00 hours regularly.

Nice location with modern architectures. You'll find major food outlets here. Good place to spend a little time. The area isn't much larger. Still, it's good. It's very difficult to find parking at weekends.

Bujairi Terrace.
Diriyah, Riyadh.
Major improvement and modification has been made recently.
Such a great spot to visit for leisure and dining.
In the heart of historical Diriyah.
It is an amazing destination for food lovers for fine dining experience with a wide selection of premium world class restaurants available at site.
And an exceptional attraction destination for history and touristic visits at al Turaif, just few minutes walking inside the terrace itself.

Went up with kids, the weather was beautiful. It was a lovely place to visit. Historical place. Had for older people to get to the top. Try to set off early in the morning if you want to go to the top. I would not recommend old people to try to go up. Take water bottles with you. There are some small shops on the way where you can buy fruit and water. Took us 45 minutes to get to the top. Depends on your pace.
The King Abdulaziz Center for World Culture, Ithra, is a cultural gem that captivates visitors with its diverse offerings. Notably, the security personnel at Ithra are incredibly helpful, ensuring a welcoming environment for all visitors. Their dedication to ensuring a positive experience enhances the overall enjoyment of the diverse cultural exhibits and activities. The security team's friendliness and helpfulness add an extra layer of warmth to the already enriching atmosphere at Ithra, making it a must-visit destination for cultural enthusiasts.

Mashallah,very peaceful place
But you have to climb 2460 ft
The Masjid Al Ghamamah is located near the Masjid an Nabawi. Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) prayed the two Eids prayers and also prayers for rain.

Masjid Al-Ghamama, also known as the Masjid of the Clouds, is located in Madinah, Saudi Arabia. It holds historical significance as it marks the location where the Prophet Muhammad performed the Eid prayer, particularly Eid al-Fitr, during his lifetime. The Masjid's name "Al-Ghamama" refers to the cloud ('ghamam' in Arabic) that is said to have provided shade during the Prophet's prayer.

The Masjid is situated near the Masjid an-Nabawi (Prophet's Masjid) and is relatively small compared to it. While not as expansive or well-known as the Prophet's Masjid, Masjid Al-Ghamama is still visited by pilgrims and tourists due to its historical importance in Islamic tradition.
It is one of the wonderful places I visited in KSA. Where the shopping, restaurants, cafes and amazing sightseeing areas for walking.

I loved this place - on one side its all modern restaurants, to go walk around, and plenty of viewing points to walk up to and get great views from. The other side is a historical place, rebuilt, to walk through a replica of the ancient town. Really nice area and cool to see it was packed full both days we were there. We didnt buy tickets in advance but I recommend that because you can just show the tickets and walk in - plus when we went if you bought a ticket it was used to help pay for the restaurant. So for example if you paid 30 riyals then it took 30 riyals off your bill. Not sure they are doing that still but was cool

The Al-Bujairi district in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, embodies a captivating blend of culture and history. Its traditional mud-brick buildings, restored into charming cafes and cultural spots, offer a nostalgic glimpse into Saudi Arabia's past. Walking through its narrow alleyways, visitors absorb the essence of heritage, art, and local crafts. The serene atmosphere, enriched by cultural performances and events, makes Al-Bujairi a must-visit, preserving the essence of Saudi Arabia's rich history amid the modern cityscape.

I really liked this atmospheric place, great for walking, lots of good restaurants and cafes. At first we got lost and couldn’t find parking for a long time. But then we found that the parking located about 7 minutes from the cultural center. To enter the complex, you need to buy tickets. But everything is processed very quickly through the application.
Mosque of Al-Ghamamah (Arabic: مسجد الغمامة) is one of the oldest mosques in Medina, Saudi Arabia, located in the place believed to be where the Islamic prophet Muhammad performed an Eid prayer in the year 631. It is also narrated that Muhammad offered Salat ul-Istasqa when the city of Madina faced a shortage of rain. For a while, this mosque was closed for daily prayers because of its proximity to the Al-Masjid an-Nabawi. However quite recently it has been reopened for the worshipers for praying. Five times prayers are held in this mosque now with an internal sound system to avoid the clash of sounds from the Prophet's Mosque. The mosque is one of the historical relics of Medina.

It was an awesome experience for me🫶🏼

Though the place is nice and has a good variety of options from cafes to restaurants. It is seasonal and not much crowded! Maybe because of the distance!

As all other Masjids this anbariya Masjid is also very beautiful. This Masjid is located near to Masjid e Nabwai in fact anyone can easily come by walk in 10 mins. This was built by Turkish. A very beautiful Turkish train station is also beside the Masjid which gives a perfect historical look of both Masjid and Station. I suggest everyone who is on holy visit to Madina must go to see n offer prayer in Anbariya Masjid and then watch the train station.
Well maintained, clean. There is a seperate entrance for women at the east side of the mosque. This was the mosque where the prophet Mohamed saw did his last Eid prayers. Also the name means ‘cloud’ which refers to the fact that the prophet saw performed here the prayer to request rain, and subhanAllah afterwards it did rain.
It's a must visit historic tourist destination in Riyadh. Well maintained,clean, and luxurious.
A good number of fine dining restaurants are available. Preferably visit before sunset so as to enjoy both day and night view of the place.
We entered in the afternoon,it was me,my wife and our 8 yr. old son. We visited the library floor by floor, what a great collection of books. When we reached the 5th floor, i saw a nice spot to read, sadly we were aproached by a lady working there, she nicely told us that children are not allowed in that floor, so we just decided to go down and head to the museum. i hope we were informed earlier.

We went to buy tickets to ithra museum and and childrens museum. the ladies in the ticketing do not know the what time the session starts for children's museum, which is a bit odd considering its their job. After we got the tickets, we headed to ithra museum, in the ticket scanning, we were informed that 1 section is not allowed for kids. that information should have been extended to us by the ladies in the ticketing before we purchased ticket, right? i told them at the ticket scanning, I cant leave my son outside a section while we enjoy the artwork, can I now. the response was, his entrance is free, you did not pay for him, kinda rude huh. someone who seems to be their supervisor aproached me and apologized. I wanted to just refund the tickets but i dont want to ruin the experience for my wife and son.

We entered arcade 1, after around 3 minutes, the guy at the ticket scanning came to us. He said, i told you that you cant enter here. My reply was how should i know which arcade im not allowed to enter. there should be someone in the entrance of the arcade to inform guests about this.im clearly irritated at this point.

So we left arcade 1 and walked down to arcade 2. Art is subjective. i was expecting more.

Arcade 3, the concept was nice, it just lacked depth for me. the lighting made it difficult to see the sea creatures and other images projected on the walls. the interactive stuffs that they have are mostly damaged and not working, probably due to wear and tear or poor maintenance.

Arcade 4, is very simple but informative. i hope they expand this section.

we left the ithra musem and waited in the lobby.

after less than an hour waiting at the lobby, we were finally allowed to enter the kids museum. we were warmly welcomed and a guy informed us about the available activities. the painting session was composed of giving kids paint and paper, with background music playing, i thought it could have been a more entertaining and memorable experience for the kids.

You can see that the staffs tried their best to entertain however many of the interactive items at the first floor are broken, not functioning properly or kind of dirty.

it was already dark when we left the building. Ithra is clearly made to impress and make you say wow, sadly the service does not do the same.

One of the most enjoyable things to do in Riyadh, especially between October and March, is to go to Riyadh Front for shopping and dinner in the evening. I definitely recommend you to eat outdoors, take a walk, and drink a glass of coffee. You can find the style and taste you want among many quality restaurants and cafes. you can choose.
Good... But Close due to Construction
If you love to explore different cuisines with a great atmosphere you can visit once there. You will love it. And if you stay in Al Khobar near cornice. You Will love to visit once a week. Because there is a playground for kids. and a big walkway to enjoy your roaming either you exercise or just roaming alone. So i would recommend it to visit once.

Plus there is a museum here that teaches you all about saudi history, and there is a cinema. Staff here are incredibly nice. 10/10 place

Neat and clean...
I recently had the opportunity to visit this truly delightful place Karam Biruet that I feel compelled to share my experience about. This hidden gem can only be described as a haven of tranquility and charm. From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by its beauty and warm ambiance.

Upon entering, I was greeted by friendly staff who genuinely seemed excited to have me there. The level of hospitality was unparalleled, and they went out of their way to ensure that every little detail was taken care of. The attention to customer satisfaction was truly commendable.

The food at this place was an absolute culinary delight. Each dish was a work of art, skillfully prepared with the freshest ingredients. Every bite was an explosion of flavors that was sure to satisfy even the most discerning palate. The dining experience was elevated by the impressive presentation and the knowledgeable staff who provided insightful recommendations.

A very beautiful masjid builtin Ottoman era
It’s a marvelous place with plenty of books, history and paintings. We visited all the 4 museums earth, art,tradition and light & energy. They have a big library expanding to 4 floors with different books from all over the world. There is a children museum and workshops for kids too. Entry and library is free but if you wish to visit those 4 museums then it costs 35SAR per person.

Dry mountain but everyone comes with a belief to visit the place where the Holy Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH) spend few days with Hazrat Abubakar Siddiq RA during migration to Madina.
One of the most fascinating places I've ever been to. The museum is a fusion of traditional and modern technology that made it highly interactive. All corners scream innovation
Plus the building itself is an exceptionally stunning!

Masjid Al Anbriyah, who is also known as Sultan Abdul Hamid mosque ( Last Sultan of Ottoman Empire)
Nice and a lot of genuine artifacts. More towards a personal collection but acknowledged by the Saudi government.
Nice place with lots of heritage
In one word, it's a wonderful place. I used to go there every weekend. You guys can go there to fresh you mind. Really a great place to get out of boringness
One of the best places to visit when you’re in Alkhobar city, relaxing environment and great for walking and jogging. The surrounding is clean and peaceful. It is newly paved now, grass and trees are well maintained as well. There are many locals and expatriates come here during the weekend to relax and enjoy.

It was closed when we visited so couldn't take photos from inside. And it doesn't seem to be well taken care of!

A lovely place to spend a quiet afternoon
There are children playground and w.c
The place is not suitable to stay after the sunset as there is no enough lighting.
We went to this place on a Saturday but the security told us it is closed and became angry when we asked a few more questions. Just telling us to get lost. So much for tourism.
Waste of planning a journey from abroad. On Google it said as open

Nice neat and clean place to spent with family with more sport activities.
Superb view for the sea side. Well maintained clean. Hygienic. With kids play area. The place is well known to spend with friends and family. The mosque is beautiful. There are plenty of kids area. The elegant spacing for cars to park. Best to spend from evenings till night.
One of the ancient archaeological museums that must be visited in the city of Makkah Al-Mukarramah is the Museum of Human Heritage, which was founded by Majdoua bin Ahmed Al-Sharawi, who worked on collecting many ancient artifacts from various musical instruments such as violin and also various weapons such as rifles and others. And there are many old newspapers that tell different stories of the deep past, and there are many wood, such as wooden doors, windows, and others.
Old saudi tradition. Decent place to visit.

I love this park the most, it is very very quiet and clean. Enough grass for kids to play on, and another area with swings and stuff. I don't like the type of grass 100%, but something is better than nothing. There is a football field too and other beautiful walking areas.
