Derived from the Arabic word rawdah, meaning “oasis,” Riyadh is the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, a dynamic metropolis combining tradition and cosmopolitanism. At the beginning of the 20th century, Riyadh covered less than 2.5 km² and has now become the largest and most important city in the Arabian Peninsula. Riyadh Infinite offers readers an overview of the city’s must-see sites, from history to modernity.

Riyadh is a constantly evolving city, innovating over the past century while preserving its rich heritage. In the coming years, impressive advances and developments, coupled with a range of exciting cultural events, will welcome visitors to this ever-expanding destination. Riyadh embodies the Kingdom’s rich past and infinite future.

Jonathan Gornall, the author of this book, is a journalist who has lived and worked in the Middle East and specializes in writing about the historical, cultural, and social aspects of life in the region. Among the heritage topics he has covered in this award-winning series are Saudi Arabia’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites, archaeological discoveries in the ancient Al-Ula Valley, and the history and redevelopment of Diriyah, the cradle of the Saudi state.
