Imagine waking up in Riyadh, stepping outside, and being greeted not just by the warm sun but by vibrant parks, tree-lined streets, and fresh green spaces. That’s exactly what the Green Riyadh Project is bringing to life. The plan? To plant a whopping 7.5 million trees across the city! From neighborhoods to highways, schools to mosques, every corner of Riyadh is getting a touch of green magic. It’s not just about the aesthetics either; it’s about cooler air, better quality of life, and giving people a chance to connect with nature right in the middle of an urban jungle.

Saudi’s vision is all about sustainability and this project is just the beginning…
