Top 7 Awesome things to do in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

3. SKY BRIDGE AT KINGDOM CENTER

Night view of the city from the Sky Bridge

If you want to see Riyadh from up above, this is the best place to be. Located on the 99th floor of Kingdom Tower, the third tallest skyscraper in Riyadh is a 56-meter sky bridge where you can have a panoramic view of the city. It takes two speedy lifts to take you to the top.  Whether you come to visit it during the day or night, both offer a spectacular view.

There are also shopping malls and restaurants on the ground floor. The Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh is also located at the Kingdom Center.

4. TOUR AT THE LARGEST INTEGRATED FARM IN THE WORLD

The way to the farm

You heard it right! The world’s largest integrated farm can be found on this desert land. Al Safi Dairy Farm in Al Kharj is a Guinness World Record Holderwith more than 50,000 Holstein cows.

Upon entering the company’s premises, cars will undergo a series of disinfection. A company staff will welcome the visitors and conduct the tour using their spacious bus. First stop is the farm. Just like any other place in the Kingdom, male and female cows cannot just mix up. Cows are also separated based on their age. A great experience for children is that they can touch and bottle-feed the baby cows.

The state-of-the-art milking parlors

Next stop is the state-of-the-art milking parlors. Be amazed on how they pamper these female cows to get the best quality milk. A short visit to the machine-operated factory is also part of the tour.
