About Murabba Palace
Topping the list of places to visit in Riyadh, explore the royal antiquity of ethereal halls, immensely and intricately detailed courtyards and well maintained gardens of one of the most surreal grandiose palaces in Riyadh.
Covering a humongous area of 9800 metres, the royal palace which is commonly known as the Murraba palace, is an Egyptian archaeological marvel. With 32 rooms, audience halls, administrative chambers and courtyards, this piece is worth exploring if history intrigues you.
Tourists can also opt for guided tour visits and learn about the royal artefacts in display. Opened in 1938, this opulent and luxurious royal residential renders a touch of modernisation with antiquity from Arab rulers.
