King Salman Park

Overview: King Salman Park (KSP) is an expansive public park and urban district under construction in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. With an area of 16.6 square kilometers (6.4 sq mi), it is set to become the largest urban park in the world upon its completion in 2024. Named after King Salman bin Abdulaziz, the park aims to increase green space in Riyadh and create a vibrant community hub for residents and visitors alike.

Vision and Purpose: Part of the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 initiative, King Salman Park aligns with the Saudi Green Initiative to promote sustainability and environmental conservation. By providing extensive green areas, recreational facilities, and cultural attractions, the park seeks to enhance the quality of life for Riyadh’s residents and contribute to the city’s transformation into a more livable and eco-friendly metropolis.

Design and Features: Designed by Saudi architecture firm Omrania and Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects, King Salman Park incorporates elements inspired by the natural landscape of Saudi Arabia, including valleys, rocky formations, and seasonal wadi riverbeds. The park will feature a central green space surrounded by cultural, residential, and commercial buildings, as well as a variety of attractions such as museums, theaters, and gathering spaces. A traffic-free urban loop within the park will accommodate walking, cycling, and autonomous modes of transportation, promoting sustainable mobility.
