Ydumany:

The historical area of Addiriyah offers a lot of potential for further uses. The fact that the government is planning to develop the area during the next years shows that the place is relevant for the community. One aim will be the support of social activities. This is in my opinion a very good approach.

We should mention, that Addiriyah is a UNESO World Heritage site, in particular the district TURAIF.
MRRIYAH is an other district surrounding this WH site.(ED)

== Short Introduction to the Area of Study ==
''
The important of this area that it was the starting of Saudi Arabia and AD DIRIYAH was the old capital, so this area can be explained as a traditional historical area, also a proud for each Saudi citizen.

We choose this area because it can be more active, so people who live there can enjoy this area in different times of the day, also stimulation to perform more social activities. we can use the minaret as an element that attract people (adults and kids) to this area.
Finally, the government is really planning to develop this area the coming years.
