Cops in Saudi raid drug and liquor den in Riyadh Saudi Arabia
Riyadh - Saudi Arabia - Welcome to Arabia - Directors Cut
Saudi Arabia is changing rapidly and it is inviting the world to come and explore. By making tourist visa now widely available, the country is truly opening its doors to the travellers. It’s definitely positive development for the people as the reception of travellers wil change the country for the good.
We were asked to create a series of travel films to showcase the various regions in the country. We pleasantly surprised by the array of gems are to be discovered throughout this vast country, that till date remained fairly undiscovered.
In this film follow Saudi Fatima on a journey showing her friend foreign friend Enza her country.
Note this is a director's cut that is different form the original launched earlier.
Places that are being shown are all around the region of Riyadh:
Historical Diriyah: it’s the historical home of the Saudi state. It was restored by King Abdullah and therefore now a UNESCO heritage site. Entering the site gave us the feeling being lost in a labyrinth guiding you through Saudi’s past. With some imagination you can daydream how ancient civilisations thrived between the walls of the old city. There’s walkways to explore every corner of it, there’s museums to learn about the past and hundreds of photo opportunities.
If you’re interested n strolling around Riyadh’s oldest and the most visited market Souk Al-Zal is your place to go. At his market you can discover the more traditional side of the Saudi culture and influences from other countries like Jemen. The contrast to the razzle-dazzle of the modern high rises and huge shopping malls in the centre is enormous.
Al Masmak Palace Museum in the equally named fortress gives a tour though Saud history. It’s full of objects, reliquaries, foto and video exhibitions. The open spaces in the fortress are great for photography as there’s a particular kind of light hitting the historical walls from above.
The most epic landscape in this region is surely The Edge of the World .. you’ll drive through the vast desert till you reach a spectacular sharp edge where an ancient ocean bed drops a dazzling 300m after it continues to street out to the horizon. There’s some hiking trails and around and you might find some fossils too. Go near sunset and you will be able to get truly amazing footage and photo’s.
Go to the Nadj village restaurant for on of the most immersive traditional Saudi food experiences in term of food and ambience. It’s a true oasis when you want to escape the heat of the day. The air gets moisturised which gives also a mysterious atmosphere. You’ll have you’re in a private space sitting on cushions on the ground seeing how the traditionally dressed waiters bring you mouthwatering food. It’s recommended to explore the other spaces.. we had fun filming here, as it breathes culture and there’s amazing details to capture everywhere.
The Kingdom Tower Skybridge is the main land mark of Riyadh An elevator brings you up to the glass corridor this enormous glas high rise in the heart of the city. From here you can gaze over both sides of the city until your eye gets lost in the desert. Go at sunset to see the light change.. a good time-lapse opportunity here.
At the Abdullah Park there are fountains that are pretty nice at night. There’s a light show with music that can be watched from a huge balcony. Try drive around on a twin bike at night and enjoy the space.

Girls harassed, locked up by workers in theme park - Saudi Arabia
Footage capturing amusement park workers inappropriately dealing with children in the Saudi city of Taif sparked outrage on the kingdom's Twitter over the weekend. #SaudiCity #CityTaif
In the video, a few girls are seen entering a room with two workers, who then lock its door. A young girl is then seen knocking on the door several times, but the men keep forcefully shutting her out.
When she persists, one of them chases her out of the area and that's when the locked up children manage to escape.
Thousands have since shared the footage accusing the workers of sexually harassing the children and demanding that an investigation is launched into the incident. #BillyBeez #ArabNews #KhaleejTimes #AlArabiya #AlArab #Arab #UAEAmusementPark #UAE #Dubia #Gulf #Gulfamusementpark
Amid the intense social media backlash, managers at Billy Beez, the amusement park where the incident took place, issued a statement on the matter. #Amusementparkworkerharassinggirls #Amusement #Park #Amusementpark #HarassingGirls #Harassment #Girls #SaudiArabia #Harassmentgirls #Harassinggirlsinpark #Ta'if #Taifamusementpark #harassmentintaif #Harassmentinpart #Harassmentinsaudi

Stranded in Hong Kong, Saudi sisters on run fear for their lives
Subscribe to our YouTube channel for free here:
Two sisters from Saudi Arabia have been stranded in Hong Kong for nearly six months.
On September 6, 2018, the young women fled their family during a holiday to Sri Lanka but were prevented from boarding their Cathay Pacific connecting flight to Australia at Hong Kong International Airport.
According to the girl’s solicitor, human rights lawyer Michael Vidler, they were apprehended in Hong Kong by staff from the Saudi consulate who attempted to put them on a flight back to the Saudi Arabian capital Riyadh, before ending up stuck and hiding in the city with invalidated passports.
Vidler said the sisters filed an application for an emergency visa to an unnamed third country. But time is running out as the pair have only been given permission to stay in Hong Kong until February 28, 2019, and they are yet to receive an answer about their emergency visa request.
The Saudi consulate in Hong Kong has not responded to our request for comment.

SHE CAN'T ESCAPE YEMEN

This is the story of a young girl named Fatima, who was born and raised in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, but was forced to move to Yemen 6 years ago.
While most civilians in Yemen are doing everything they can to flee this horrific situation, she has done the opposite. She went from living in a modern and peaceful country to an impoverished and dangerous one, and it's been very difficult for her to adapt.
Can you imagine being trapped in Yemen after growing up in an advanced society in Riyadh? As much as she wants to leave to study, she must wait until the situation clears up and the borders/airports reopen.
This video also explains her perspective on what needs to be done for Yemen to overcome this disaster and go back to how life used to be 10 years ago. It's a fascinating interview and I enjoyed hearing her thoughts. I hope you do too.
