Summit conference center

This week the 4th Summit of the Arab and South American Countries took place in Riyadh at the King Abdulaziz International Conference Center, pictured here and adjacent to the Ritz Carlton, where the delegates were staying.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen so many flags in Riyadh, on every major road and overpass as well as here, at the conference center and hotel. They also tried to spruce up the city by putting plastic tubs of flowers on the roadsides.

The line of flags really does decorate the roadside and adds the right 'international' mood. V
