Watch a video Riyadh.
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 (1600 square kilometers) 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
Inside
the Royal Capital, Professional Connections works with The King Faisal
Specialist Hospital & Research Center, The King Khaled Eye
Specialist Hospital and The King Abdulaziz Medical City.Of all the Kingdom's
developmental achievements, Riyadh is perhaps the most obvious and
accessible to the foreign visitor. From the moment you land at the King
Khalid International Airport, 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.
