High end shops and good prices, all very neat and clean, upscale. Plenty of places to stop and eat also, seems to be a little more relaxed than downtown Riyadh. Great place to stop and look around .

Loved visiting here with my Saudi habibi and family. I think this is a great idea and was totally surprised when I knew this event was taking place, and is to become a regular annual event I understand. There was so much food to chose from, so many people mingling with each other, different Arab cultures including Bahrain, Emirati and Egyptian - I'm British and met some people from USA and Canada, as well as so many other nationalities and cultures. We attended the cinema and watched Ford vs Ferrari - great movie. It got a little cold the later it went on, but I didn't mind I'm used to it. The atmosphere was vibrant and exciting, there is of course no trouble at all, partners were holding hands, dancing and enjoying themselves, my friends and I had such a great time here, I can't wait to go back in the peak of Riyadh Season. The water display was the best I have ever seen, the music was enchanting and I was totally amazed and impressed by all the stops being pulled out to entertain here. There is a lot of parking facilities and it's well-organised too. This is good for friends, teens, family, couples the lot. There is a lot of opportunity to buy gifts and I am lucky most vendors spoke English.

8. Thumairi Gate
Featured on the 1922 map of Riyadh in convert and explorer, Harry St John Philby's book, The Heart of Arabia, this atmospheric mud and clay gate, sitting at the eastern edge of Old Riyadh, offers a glimpse of what the tiny little settlement of Riyadh might once have looked like, before the Saudis struck black gold.
