Al Hamra Palace

Al Hamra Palace was built in the center of Jeddah upon King Faisal’s request in 1971 to transform it into a hospitality palace to host the Kingdom’s guests. Surveying the city’s Corniche, the palace pays eloquent tribute to traditional Arabic-Islamic architecture with richly adorned arched gateways, slanted roofs with aqua-green tiles, and a striking façade crafted from Riyadh stone.

The Red Palace

The Red Palace is located in the heart of old Riyadh. It was the first building to be constructed of reinforced concrete. It got its name because of its unique reddish color. In 1957, it became the headquarters of the Council of Ministers for 30 years. The palace then became the headquarters of the Board of Grievances until 2002.

Tuwaiq Palace

The history of Tuwaiq Palace is interwoven with state receptions and festivals celebrating arts and culture, due to its strategic location in the Diplomatic Quarter (DQ) in Riyadh, on approximately 110,000 sqm of land area. The palace was awarded the prestigious Aga Khan Award for its unique design that embraces the spirit of an oasis, blending in with its surrounding landscape.
