Top 5 Tourist Places in Riyadh You Should Visit Next

Welcome to one of the wealthiest countries in the world. A perfect blend of medieval and millennial is found in Riyadh, the capital city of Saudi Arabia. Once a walled trading route, you can envision the bold future this city holds in its architecture, souqs, cuisines, and culture as a whole. One of the most fascinating histories can be traced back to these top tourist places in Riyadh. So pack your bags, get your camera ready and start your tour at these fantastic places in the city.

Globe Experience – Faisaliah Center

If you’ve been in central Riyadh for even a few hours, you may have spotted the enormous towers standing tall among the skyline. One of those has a giant globe at its top and that’s what we’re talking about here.

The Globe Experience is a spectacular viewing platform inside an enormous glass ball that’s 24m in diameter, made of 655 glass panels, and suspended just below the top of Al Faisaliah Tower. There’s a restaurant inside the globe that you can book a reservation for and through the doors, you get an entire 360-view of the city. The tower is located off Olaya street.

Sky Bridge – Kingdom Center

Another famous tower dotting Riyadh’s skyline is the Kingdom Center. Not for the faint-hearted or those suffering from vertigo, here, high-speed lifts fly you at 180km/h to the 99th-floor Sky Bridge.

As the tower is shaped like a can opener, the Sky Bridge is suspended 300 meters above the city, offering spectacular views across the Riyadh skyline and beyond, and is a must-do experience for tourists passing through the capital.

If you’d only like to revisit history, here are the top 5 historical places in Riyadh

Edge of the World

The most famous desert trek from Riyadh is definitely the Edge of the World. Aptly named, this spectacular spot offers uninterrupted views across the barren valley floor and to the horizon, from the edge. These dramatic views earned the site its nickname, and have helped turn it into one of Riyadh’s most popular tourist destinations.

It’s roughly a 90-minute drive from the capital city, located 90km far. It forms part of the vast Tuwaiq cliffs, which stretch over more than 600km through central Saudi. It typically takes between 15 and 30 minutes to reach the cliff edge, however, there are plenty of opportunities along the way to stop and enjoy the view.

Heet Cave

Ever wondered what’s it like to swim, scuba or snorkel in crystal-clear waters, right in the middle of the desert? Because you can do just that at Ain Heet Cave on the outskirts of Riyadh. Bask in unfiltered waters in one of Saudi Arabia’s most easily accessible wild caves.

Once you near the fragile entrance, you’d notice why this natural wonder is also called Ain Heet. ‘Ain’ means eye in Arabic, and the 20-meter wide entrance has almost the same shape.

While the cave starts narrowing down to approx. 5 meters, carefully watch how you step on the unstable rocks, as the boulders aren’t fixed to the ground. While heading towards Al-Kharj, there’s an exit to Al Heet, about 40 km from Riyadh’s city center.

National Museum

Which visit to a city is ever complete without a trip to its museum? Where decades and centuries-old history can be traced by locals and tourists alike. Such is the charm of the National Museum of Riyadh, part of King Abdul Aziz Historical Centre, and one of the most visited places in the city.

Encased within modernist architecture, its two floors contain eight well-designed and informative galleries covering Arabian prehistory, history, culture, and art. They include audio-visual installments, virtual visits to historical sites, and other excellent interactive displays.

Planning to visit other cities? Here’s what you should pick next

Visit Museum of Illusions in Riyadh: Your Break from Reality

Escapism is an essential aspect of our existence, it provides temporary relief allowing us to recharge and return to our busy day-to-day life with more hope and vitality. If you’re wondering what to do this weekend, and don’t fancy going to past-visited places, we’ve got just the right entertainment for you! Whether you choose to visit with your friends, family or go solo, at the Museum of Illusions (MOI) you’re sure to have your mind and all senses blown.

One-of-its-kind Museum

Immerse yourself into the illusions of the Vortex Tunnel, a first of its kind in this part of the world. It will drive you insane, by altering your stance on what’s real and what’s not. Be prepared to lose your balance, and don’t forget to hold on tight. What ensues is a battle of the senses – sight vs touch in this case. Your hands gripping along the bridge reaffirming that the body hasn’t moved an inch throughout, whereas the beaming tunnel spiraling endlessly, counters the previous assumption. In the end, you might feel a bit light-headed but wouldn’t mind another helping of this thrill ride.

A Perceptual Play

“The more I see, the less I know for sure,” said the legend John Lennon, and never has this quote held more truth than for such an illusionary spectacle. Prepare to get your perceptions completely bedazzled with this one. Who would’ve known that your surrounding environment played a key role in determining how others perceived you, philosophically and metaphorically speaking. Don’t believe me? Try this chair for yourself.

Not Everything is What it Seems at Museum of Illusions

Never knew Shawarma platter would be a thing of the past, ever since the launch of the “Head Platter”. One look at such an exciting exhibit and I am sure you’d roll your eyes or scream out loud. But fret not, as things are not always what they seem. Surprise your friends this week with your head on the plate because having a body along with it is too mainstream.

Is size just an illusion?

Don’t think so? Then try out this mysterious room, it’ll make you question a lot of things. At first, it may look like any normal room, but your size is altered as a function of your position, an excellent opportunity for taking pictures and sharing them with your friends to freak them out.

Here, the Law of Gravitational Attraction Doesn’t Exist

Get ready to have your brain dazzled, with a surface that’s neither flat nor slanted. But that’s not the only out-of-ordinary thing that you’re going to notice, with objects being drawn into the sky, water streaming uphill, things that are beyond expression that you have to witness yourself in the hopes of making sense of it.

Are you interested in art? You will enjoy reading this article.

A Room Where Your Imagination is the Limit

Ever wanted to stand upside-down but the circumstances didn’t allow it? Well, now you don’t have an excuse. Experience what life looks like from multiple angles, quite literally.

And much more…

We don’t want to spoil the experience for you, so hurry and get tickets to this one-of-a-kind museum. Tickets to the Museum of Illusions are available through their main website or you can buy them directly at the museum.

Tickets costs:

SAR 80 for Adults
