Je l'ai déjà été !Explora el fascinante pasado de Riyadh y descubre cómo se ha desarrollado a lo largo de los siglos.
Originally known as Hajr, Riyadh was an area of fertile oases. In the 15th century, it became a key settlement. Its importance grew as it was the ancestral home of the House of Saud, with nearby Diriyah as the first Saudi state.
Following the unification of the kingdom in 1932 by King Abdulaziz, Riyadh grew from a walled adobe city to a modern capital fueled by the oil boom of the mid-20th century, expanding rapidly across the Najd Plateau.
Under Vision 2030, Riyadh is experiencing an unprecedented metamorphosis, becoming a global business and tourism center, with megaprojects such as the Riyadh Metro, King Salman Park and the KAFD financial district.
