Parks Places Map
Parks in Riyadh:
King Abdullah Park
Salam Park
Sunscreen is a must if you're visiting during the day—especially in summer! I forgot mine and really regretted it after a few hours.
Peace Park
My advice is to bring a picnic. There are plenty of nice spots to relax and enjoy a meal, and you'll save money instead of buying snacks in nearby cafes.
I suggest you visit early in the morning around 8 AM to beat the heat and the crowds. It was so peaceful at that time, and I could really enjoy the surroundings.
I recommend checking the weather before you go. I went on a hot day and regretted not bringing more water. Staying hydrated is super important!
Al Bujairi Heritage Park
I suggest visiting in the late afternoon, around 4 PM, to enjoy the cooler weather and stunning sunset views over Riyadh. It's a beautiful sight!
Wadi Namar Dam Park
I found it really peaceful in the mornings around 7 AM. The weather is cool and it’s less crowded, so you can enjoy the scenic views with fewer distractions.
