4 Best Cities to live in Saudi Arabia

There are various reasons why someone would want to move to Saudi Arabia, the most alluring reason is of course the Two Holy Mosques. But there are many more reasons to love the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 

Here we would like to share a list of 4 best cities in Saudi Arabia, though they never encourage tourism but few cities are considered as the core part of the Kingdom.

Madina - The City of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH)

Medina is a most peaceful city in the world and most of all it is the city of our beloved Prophet Muhammad. Medina itself is beautiful, with large minarets and a rich heritage. The city is developing and you can find many coffee shops (Starbucks), as well as plenty of amazing eateries to explore while staying there. You will found Medina’s local people to be very kind and welcoming and they just know every other language!

Makkah - The city that never sleeps

Mecca is the largest of the Two Holy Cities of Islam. Over one billion Muslims pray in Haramain every day. The expansion of the Haramain has changed a lot of the city structure. The city holds many world records, which include the tallest clock tower in the world, the world’s biggest clock face and the biggest hotel in the world.

Jeddah - The bride of the red sea

Jeddah is one of the best cities in Saudi Arabia for expats to live in. First of all, it is full of people from around the world. You’ll find them every where around. The city has an amazing beach. Some great activities for sea lovers are scuba diving or deep sea fishing. Jeddah has some huge malls and the best thing about it is the Haramain is just an hour away!!

Riyadh - The capital of Saudi Arabia

As opposed to Jeddah, Riyadh is a peaceful or maybe a not so happening city. It is in the middle of the desert and can get very uurrrgghh cold at night during the winters. Riyadh often gets hit by sandstorms, which increases the possibilities of various allergies. The Mutawas can be seen more in Riyadh than other cities and law is strictly enforced.
