Lying just northwest of the capital city of Riyadh, Diriyah is an ancient town, with a rich history and is the site of Saudi's recent past.
Visitors can now experience the historical charm of Diriyah and At-Turaif for a discounted price of SAR50 per person, for those visiting after 5pm. Usually priced at SAR100 per person, this discounted fee is ideal for both locals and tourists alike.
And in even better news, this SAR50 fee is redeemable at any dining outlet at Bujairi Terrace. But for those looking for the ultimate low-cost day out, there is no entry fee for those wishing to visit Diriyah before 5pm.
Despite its rich history and incredible views, more recently, the location's dining development Bujairi Terrace, has become the foothold of several international restaurant brands including Angelina Paris, Brunch & Cake and Hakkasan alongside local favourites like Takya and Somewhere.
So, why not take in both the cultural sites and enjoy a sumptuous meal at the same time? A number of dining destinations at Bujairi Terrace even offer guests unspoiled views over the ancient landscape and city of Diriyah.
The birthplace of the Saudi royal family and the capital of the first Saudi state, Diriyah and more specifically At-Turaif, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, and was inscribed in the same year.
Described by UNESCO as "a diversified and fortified urban ensemble within an oasis," At-Turaif is home to many remnants of an ancient life that are still visible to this day, including several palaces and and a citadel.
The nation's original capital city, Diriyah has long been admired for the traditional mud-brick architecture and intact ancient structures. This architecture is mimicked in the 2022 construction of the Bujairi Terrace dining destination, which also embraces traditional Nadji architecture and design.
