Explore the Birthplace of Modern Saudi Arabia

We visited Al Masmak Fortress and it was amazing. Our family loved learning about Saudi Arabia's history and seeing the old mud buildings. We explored the fortress and its towers, and the kids enjoyed the interactive exhibits. We took great photos and learned about the important role Al Masmak played in Riyadh's history. The atmosphere was historic and fascinating. We felt like we stepped back in time. Our family had a wonderful time exploring Al Masmak together, and we'll always remember the experience. It was a fun and educational visit that brought our family's history lessons to life.
