The First Digitally Driven Park, Al Urubah Park is the first projects related to the territorial strategy for the development of the Green Riyadh, and it is part of a true green network that helps to rebalanced the ecosystem of the city, positively affecting the environment.

The location for Al Urubah Park appears to be of strategic interest due to its surrounding areas and connections. The Park, in fact, is placed only 3 Km away from the future green center of the city: King Salman Park.

Moreover, it is located along the main N-S and W-E arterial roads of Riyadh, King Fahd Road and Makkah Al Mukarramah Road. Through Urubah Rd at West, it is well connected to the natural and green belt of Wadi Alysen.

Al Urubah Park becomes an urban centrality capable to interlace connections with the surrounding network of the City, intercepting nature through the digitization. We are creating the first digitally driven park worldwide, a place where people can experience nature in an innovative way.

The Park concept starts from the interpretation of Riyadh context, which is characterized by two main elements: the urban grid and the wadis. The site blooms at the convergence of these two systems, Al Urubah Park will be the place where people meet nature.

A digitally driver futuristic park of about 700,000 m².
