Thanks for your comment. I wasn't aware that Saudis cannot live in compounds. On my next trip, I hope I can spend time with more locals to learn more about their lives.

Thank you 😊

Yeah. And I found it quick relaxed compared to my busy life in Southeast Asia. I hope to see more of KSA.

Many thanks!

Thank you. It was a nice trip.

Hi. I left the UK 12 years ago... I also probably need a guide of how to live there! I will add a guide to Singapore soon. Thanks.

@@jongetsaround is it tha bad that u had to leave it?

Sure, I guess KSA has changed a great deal since 2005 though. I think international firms will be moving to KAFD. I will go back to check at some point.

I think subtitles are automatically generated... but I will also try to add subtitles to my videos at some point. This is still all quite new to me! Thanks!

Thank you. I loved it!

@@jongetsaround I love people who loved my country

I mostly deal with people involved in architecture and construction projects.

Thanks! 😁

Yes, totally. My timings were limited as I had to catch a flight to Dubai (and then ended up continuing to the UK as storms hit the UAE). Work is still being done to develop Diriyah as well as Qiddiya, Mukaab etc, so I hope to see them once ready!

I think so too!

Thanks for watching

Abha is on my list to head to some day. I wonder which is best, Abha or AlUla..?

I'll take this as a compliment 😄

Thank you. Nighttime is definitely busier, but a bit harder to film. 🙂 Next time I film in Riyadh/KSA, I will try to add more nighttime events. Thanks for watching!

@francescomotta7325 Much appreciated. 😊

Very true. I saw that downtown Riyadh is very busy at nighttime. I also visited Diriyah during the daytime and there was only a few people there. I know it's much more active in the evening. I couldn't stay later as I was catching a flight in the afternoon. I will add a video about that soon. 🙂

Awesome. Huge thanks.

Sure! I have been based in Southeast Asia for 10 years and have explored the Middle East too - but I have not been to anywhere in South Asia yet! Thanks for watching.

Riyadh impressed me a lot. I look forward to visiting again.

Great! I think it'll be a more exciting area by early 2025.

then you’re probably entering through the wrong gate, there’s a few areas people aren’t allowed to go into so maybe you mistaked it for the wrong gate because I’ve been over 50 times and I’m always allowed without anyone asking me anything

@maliksuleman5677 You can walk around the KAFD. Although it's not fully operational, there are some people already working there. Obviously you cannot enter active construction sites.

@abdulmohd3871 I enjoyed the trip to Wadi Namar. Many families stay there in the evening time as it is illuminated at nighttime, but we left before sunset as we arrived there earlier.

Many thanks to you @islamheikal9209

Thanks @muslimsk2720 It's impressive. I hope to return to KAFD once everything's fully open

Hi @perfect8299 I understand that KAFD Metro Station will connect to 3 metro lines in 2024, plus the monorail in 2026. As far as I'm aware, none of the 6 Riyadh Metro lines have started operations yet - but should start this year.

@@jongetsaround I work in metro stations and you are correct Mr Jon 👍 some stations will start receiving people within months
