Riyadh - From Oasis to Metropolis A modern metropolis, Riyadh is surrounded by beautiful natural scenery and traditional Nadji architecture fills the provinces. Our skyline of Riyadh takes in some of the traditional buildings that formed this city like the Al-Masmak Fortress along with beauty of the grand mosques and the distinctive modern skyscrapers like the Kingdom Centre. Riyadh grew from a walled oasis settlement into one of the Middle East's largest and fastest-changing capitals. The mud-brick Masmak Fort now shares the skyline with some of Saudi Arabia's most ambitious contemporary towers. Our skyline brings together Al Masmak Fort, The Water Tower, Riyadh TV Tower and The Hanging Bridge, capturing some of the architecture and landmarks that make Riyadh unmistakable.
