A world-class resort in a world-class destination awaits you 

The people of Saudi Arabia and indeed holiday travelers around the world marked World Tourism Day this year with much joy as the Saudi Government formally opened its doors to tourists from all over the world. Through the fast and easy-to-use online Saudi eVisa portal, international visitors from eligible countries can apply for an eVisa which would be issued on a one-year, multiple-entry basis, allowing tourists to spend up to 90 days in the country.

While the two holy cities of Makkah and Madinah, will continue to draw religious tourism, with the new visa policy, the kingdom now has a better chance to share its diverse beauty with the world, from the mountains of Abha to the beaches of the Red Sea to the historic charm of Al-Turaif district in historic Diriyah.

Speaking of historic charm, one cannot but mention the capital Riyadh – a city rich in history, with forts, palaces and museums, and some of the country’s most vibrant souks. Just minutes from Riyadh, however, is the must-see Al-Turaif district in historic Diriyah which is a carefully restored mud-brick district that was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, while the Al Bujairy district is perfect for families, with its twisting lanes, restaurants and cafes.

And what better time to visit Saudi Arabia than now, for between 22^nd November to 21^st Dec 2019, the Diriyah Season kicks off at this heritage site which plays host to a spectacular season of world-class sport, entertainment, music, culture and more.

This is what you can look forward to at Diriyah Season:

• Formula E
• Clash on the Dunes for the World Heavyweight Title fight
• Diriyah Tennis Cup
• Diriyah Equestrian Festival
• Live shows by internationally acclaimed artists
• Diriyah Oasis, a cultural and entertainment district
  and much more…
