    King Salman Park

    King Salman Park, the largest urban park in the world, sits at the heart of Riyadh and offers a wide range of activities, from arts and culture experiences to sports, innovation, and entertainment features.


    Launched in 2019 by King Salman bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, King Salman Park sits at the heart of Riyadh. As the largest urban park in the world, it will offer a wide range of activities and experiences for visitors of all ages.

    The Park’s vast open green spaces make it a desired venue for hosting sports and cultural events, and artistic and recreational activities, while its relaxing environment enables visitors to experience nature. The Park also includes an Islamic style garden, vertical gardens, a maze garden, and a bird and butterfly sanctuary.

    In addition to its cultural and recreational offerings, King Salman Park’s design has sustainability and environmental protection in mind, with goals to increase the vegetation in the region and raise the rate of per capita green spaces.
