King Abdullah Park

King Abdullah Park, Public garden in central Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

King Abdullah Park is a 31.8-hectare municipal park in Riyadh's al-Malazz neighborhood, next to Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium. It has a 12-meter-wide pedestrian corridor, a 110-meter laser fountain and an artificial lake.

Al-Malaz Square hosted horse races for King Abdulaziz ibn Saud from the early 20th century; its name comes from laz, Arabic for running fast in a race. In 1965 King Faisal approved the Equestrian Club there, with Prince Abdullah as president, and Queen Elizabeth II and Indira Gandhi were among visiting dignitaries between 1968 and 2002. Racing moved out after 1997, the square passed to the Riyadh Municipality in 2003, and the park opened on 2 October 2013.

The name al-Malaz comes from the Arabic laz, meaning running fast in a race, after the horse racing once held here. Today the park fills during Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha and Saudi National Day, when fireworks are set off before midnight.

The park lies beside Prince Faisal bin Fahd Stadium in al-Malazz. Its 12-metre-wide pedestrian corridor links the artificial lake and the 110-metre laser fountains. Expect crowds during Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha and Saudi National Day, when fireworks are set off before midnight.

The park's laser fountains rise 110 metres, fed by an artificial lake beside the 12-metre-wide pedestrian corridor. The site was a horse racecourse until 2002, and the name al-Malaz comes from the Arabic laz, 'running fast in a race'.
