"The Capital of The Saudi Kingdom." a Riyadh Travel Page by 8ullet

I have been in this city the first time when I was 18yold, at that time I couldn’t imagine that this city would be the city I visit in 2004, which mean 11years after, The City of Riyadh has been changed enormously, for anyone who has been there and left for long time will notice that the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia rivals any modern city in the world in the splendor of its, 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 (1600 square kilometers) and has a population of more than 4.7 million.

Of all the Kingdom's developmental achievements, Riyadh is perhaps the most obvious and accessible to the foreign visitor. To me this city is not a tourism city, even though there are to many attractions to visit, but I can grantee for everybody that this city is a business city, so for those who looking for the biggest market in the middle east to do business, I advice them to go a head and give it a try.
