The word Riyadh comes from the Arabic word Rawdah which means ‘Gardens’ or ‘Meadows’ due to the immense richness of lush green gardens in the area. As well as being recognized as the capital, Riyadh is considered the center of culture and heritage of Saudi Arabia with its various historic local destinations.
