Dir'iyah

Saudiarabien

Historiske steder

Erklæret et UNESCO World Site-heritage i 2010, blev ruinene af byen Dir'iyah - også stavet 'Ad Diriyah' - bygget i 1466 af en Al-Saud-clan-ruler. Dir'iyah var den første hovedstad og sædet for Saud-dynastiet fra 1744 til 1818. Ruinerne inkluderer de gamle klanpaladser lavet af muddermursten, en gammel Wahhabi-moske, bymure og bygninger.

Oasebyen Dir'iyah ligger inden for Turaif-distriktet i Wadi Hanifa-dalen i Riyadh. Området menes at have været beboet for 80.000 år siden, hvor der er blevet fundet klippeudskæringer og forskellige stenartefakter.

I dag, med hovedstadens vækst, ligger Dir'iyahs porte i den nordvestlige udkant af Riyadh. Adgang til stedet er gratis.
