Trojena, City in Saudi Arabia
Trojena is a mountain development under construction in Neom, northwestern Saudi Arabia, rising from 1,500 to 2,600 meters above sea level. Located about 50 kilometers from the Gulf of Aqaba, the site will include hotels, restaurants, ski slopes, hiking trails, and wellness resorts.
The project was announced in early 2022 by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman as part of Saudi Arabia's vision to diversify its economy beyond oil. That same year, Trojena was selected to host the Asian Winter Games in 2029, making it one of the few places in the Middle East with winter sports facilities.
The high altitude brings cooler weather than surrounding desert areas, with winter temperatures dropping below freezing and more comfortable summer conditions. Construction is still ongoing, so visitors should check the current status of openings before planning a trip.
The area will house an interactive nature reserve where visitors can learn about the local environment and wildlife. Construction costs reportedly rose by over ten billion dollars, leading to delays and financial discussions.

Everywhere, in deserts, along coasts, and in city centers, new building projects change how cities grow and work. Some build tall towers that change the view, others create whole neighborhoods from scratch. Each project shows different ways of thinking about design, technology, and how people live together. In Saudi Arabia, The Line offers a city without cars that runs through the desert, Trojena gives mountain skiing, and Sindalah builds a new island in the Red Sea. In Dubai, buildings like One Za’abeel, where two towers connect with a hanging bridge, or Dubai Creek Tower that switches the look along the water. In Paris, the Tour Triangle, a glass pyramid in the south, shows how the city considers height and space. These projects are of different sizes and purposes. There are large factories like Oxagon that work on the water, and places to live or work in Jeddah, Zhuhai, and elsewhere. Some are already being built, with the bases and structure going up, others are waiting for permission or funds. Each project aims to meet local needs, whether for more homes, attracting visitors, or trying new ways to build that care for the environment. Together, they show how architects and city planners think about the links between buildings, roads, and daily life around the world.
