day in RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA يوم في الرياض

Okay, good morning everybody. It's Valk here from my second full day here in beautiful Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Today the plan is to explore more of the modern places you can find here in Riyadh

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting the older people in the market. Today I'm heading to the malls and also to the Kingdom Tower

I'm just jumping in an Uber now to the Kingdom Tower. As I explained in yesterday's video, there are no public transports

So the metro is being built, it should be finished this year. But yeah, I'm going to jump in an Uber now and I'll see you at the Kingdom Centre

Asalaamu Alaikum Asalaamu Alaikum Okay so I just made it inside the Kingdom Tower

bridge should just be ahead of us. Inside the tower full of high-end stores and

yeah here's the sky bridge let's get a ticket and head up to the top floor it's

about 300 meters high making it the tallest building and tallest tower in

the whole of Saudi Arabia so let's head up Okay, so just got my ticket the price for an adult is 60 reals. So around $16. Let's head to the top. I'm really really excited

So just arrived here at the top of the Kingdom Tower 99 floors up 300 meters high making it the tallest tower in the whole of Saudi Arabia These views are epic take a look at this

Wow you guys this view is something else it's so so incredible even at a level of 300 meters

the tallest building in Saudi Arabia you still can't see the edges of the beautiful city at this

time of the day it's about 4 p.m. Sunset is going to happen very soon it's beautiful

if you guys are coming to Riyadh this definitely has to be on your list the views are incredible

I'm gonna head down now and watch the sunset and then head to the mall see what else we can discover

I just made it inside Riyadh Park Mall

This place is huge and amazing and beautiful. Very much Dubai feels

Fountains everywhere. Amazing cafes. You guys, this mall is crazy

Inside here there are cinemas. I didn't think there were gonna be cinemas

but the ban was actually raised in 2018 so almost four years ago There a theme park in here This is crazy I never could have expected this from Saudi before coming here but yeah I love it it amazing

it's actually prayer time here now in saudi so they actually close all the stores which i love

i love the fact that they give people the opportunity to pray back at home in london

of course that doesn't happen so yeah it's pretty amazing i like that all of these stores closed

it's great okay it's a bit later in the evening now i'm just heading to the mosque

which is just by my hotel and then just about five minute walk is Al Baik which is a really famous restaurant here in Saudi

so I'm going to give it a try and Yeah, I'm gonna see if I like it. It's been so recommended to me since I got here. So

Yeah, just gonna head inside the mosque and then I'll eat So long

That mosque is so beautiful. Very, very quiet, but still so, so beautiful

The mosques here in Saudi Arabia mean a lot to me. I'll explain more about that maybe in a different video

But yeah, let's head to Abaik and let's finally eat. I'm very, very hungry

It's been a really, really busy day. A lot happened, which I didn't show on camera

but now it's time for food. Yes, I found it. It's so busy

And one chicken fillet sandwich So I got the famous Albaik

Food I'm gonna head home. It's way too busy in there to eat. So
