Great Countries- Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is my work place. I lived and worked here for 10 years now. It is great country if you venture out to find the places to enjoy. Not the simple pleasures but something deeper! Have a view of some such places here!

Half Moon Beach
Address :
Al Dammam, Saudi Arabia
Keywords: half moon beach, desert drive in saudi, bridge to bahrain

This is near my present Work Place, Jubail, Saudi Arabia. It was difficult to find a photo to put since photography at public places was not allowed. Now the rule is relaxed and you can see many photographs of this vast and "majestic' desert land filled with oil!
This place, Half Moon beach is a weekend getaway destination with all modern facilities.

The Saudis are great desrt drivers. More than 1000 cars, the most powerful in teh world market are brought here for the pleasure, competition or watching. Some compete with each other for a challenge worth thousands  of  Rials betting! It has to be seen to believe!

Corniche at Al khobar
Address :
Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia
Keywords: eating places, seaside, conrniche, saudi fashion, shopping malls in saudi, best restaurants

Al khobar is the most forward, most cosmopolitan, most sophisticated place of high fashion, largest Shopping Malls, the best eating joints and the largest number of luxury cars you can find within a km (One evening I counted 5 Hummers near Corniche!)
To top it all, a new beautiful building has come up on Corniche road where all the floors are only for restaurants! Italian, French, English, American, Chinese, Indian, Mexican. All are authentic restaurants of fame in their original countries! Of course the rates are high, meant for real connoisseurs!- No fast foods here!

This is one place where you don’t miss your wine when enjoying your dinner! (Alcohol is banned in Saudi)
