After that, we head to the nearby Murrabba Palace that was the royal residence where King Abdulaziz hosted his court. The palace was named after its square 40 by 40-meter shape and is now one of the city’s main museums.
Adjacent to the palace, a modern building hosts a collection of King Abdulaziz’s personal items which we will tour briefly. These places illustrate the heart of the birth of the Saudi nation.
