"It will be a premium hospitality destination with a multitude of retail, cultural and tourist attractions, along with residential and hotel units, commercial spaces, and recreational facilities."
The project will be located at the intersection of King Salman and King Khalid roads to the northwest of Riyadh.
The modern district will feature more than 104,000 residential units, 9,000 hotel rooms, luxury retail stores, offices, and space for leisure activities and community facilities.
