Saudi Arabia has unveiled plans for an entertainment city on the edge of Riyadh which will be 50 times the size of Gibraltar once complete. The new development will offer shopping, culture, sporting and entertainment activities – including a Six Flags park and a safari park.
The announcement boasts it will be the first of its kind in the world. The new development is set to be ready for 2022.
Vision 2030, announced by Deputy Crown Prince Mohammad Bin Salman a year ago, aims to diversify the economy and reduce the kingdom’s reliance on oil, through a series of projects.
The entertainment city – about a fifth of the area of Riyadh in size – is the latest to be announced.
