| Riyadh City Information Part 01

Part 02 |
| |
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 and has a population of more than 4.7 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.
