Diriyah was the very first capital of Saudi Arabia and it has a lot of history. We can see the place where the Saudi state was born and where important events happened. Some parts of Diriyah are being fixed up right now, so we can only look at them from the outside. But there are still many interesting things to see and learn about in this special place.

In a place called Riyadh, there used to be a city called Ad Diriyah. It was built on an oasis near a river called Wadi Hanifa. The city had walls made of mud-bricks and it was a very busy and important place where people did a lot of trading and had a lot of fun.

Long ago, there was a special place called Al Turaif district. This place was very important because it was where the rulers of Saudi Arabia used to live. In fact, it was even the capital of the country a long time ago. The buildings in Al Turaif are very old and special, so they have been given a special title by a group called UNESCO. They are now working very hard to fix up the old buildings and make them look nice again, so that people can learn about the history of Saudi Arabia.

In the Al Bujairy district of Ad Diriyah, there is a special place where a famous religious scholar named Mohammed bin Abdul Wahab used to live. The area has small, old-fashioned houses made of mud that have been turned into beautiful historical places for people to visit.

You can pay a little extra to go on the bridge and see a really amazing view of the whole city. There are also some nice places to eat and shop there too.

You will get to see a really big and important mosque called The Al Rajhi Grand Mosque in Riyadh. It is very special because it has a beautiful design and is a very important place for Muslims. Inside the mosque, there are two libraries, classes about forensic science, a system that helps with everyday tasks, and a big area where 18,000 men can pray and a smaller area for 2,500 women to pray.

At the end, we will go to a special library called The King Fahd National Library. It is a really cool building with a unique design. This library is important for Saudi Arabia because it keeps copies of all the books published there. It was built in 1983 because the people of Riyadh wanted to honor their new king, King Fahd. It is now a popular place for tourists to visit, but it is closed on Saturdays and Fridays.
