KAFD World Trade Center

KAFD World Trade Center is a large commercial tower with 67 floors rising 304 meters in the King Abdullah Financial District. The structure features extensive office space designed for international business tenants and was built with modern glass and steel construction.

Construction began in 2010 with the completion occurring in 2022, designed by the architecture firm Gensler. This building represents a significant phase in developing the King Abdullah Financial District as a modern business center.

This tower serves as a hub for international business professionals working in finance and commerce across the Middle East. Its presence in the financial district reflects Saudi Arabia's role as a major economic player in the region.

The tower is easy to locate within the financial district and provides extensive facilities for business operations. Visitors should plan to explore the ground level and public spaces to get a sense of the building's scale and design.

The tower features a distinctive public space called the Wadi, a sunken plaza located about 5.5 meters below street level. This area uses natural airflow to help cool the surroundings and serves as a gathering point for workers and visitors.
