    "The best building in Riyadh can be seen from a distance. The Kingdom Tower is connected to a mall, and common brands can basically be found. It is a pity that I caught up with the observation deck maintenance, and I did not successfully climb the tower. I will come back next time."

    "By coincidence, I was invited to a meeting of Chinese-funded construction companies in Saudi Arabia. I was attracted by this building. Riyadh’s iconic skyscraper has a unique shape, a modern and artistic sense. The bottom floor is commercial, and there are restaurants and sightseeing halls on the upper floors overlooking the entire city!"

    Highlights: Faisal Tower is a tall building in Riyadh. You can take the elevator to the revolving restaurant at the top of the tower, and enjoy the panoramic view of Riyadh city while enjoying the food. Like Monas in Jakarta, this tower is an organic combination of Islamic traditional culture and modern architectural concepts, and is highly respected by Saudis.

    "Visit the Saudi National Museum in Riyadh's old city and see a meteorite at the door. The museum displays the history of the Saudi state and the early Middle East human texts of Arab history with modern technology, which evolved into later Arabic texts. Careful when shooting, don't shoot at people, especially Saudi women wearing black headscarves. I actually found a guy like the Alaa lamp"
