We could be saying bonjour to a Saudi Arabia Champs-Élysées before we know it.
There are plans for Saudi to building its very own full-size Champs-Élysées Boulevard in Diriyah.
Our sister site Hotelier reported the plans were discussed at the recent Future Investment Initiative. The proposed Saudi Arabia Champs-Élysées tribute will be a similar size to Paris’ most famous shopping avenue. The Paris Champs-Élysées stretches 1.9 kilometres and is filled with shops, cafés and restaurants, and it is a must-visit tourist attraction. It is anticipated that the Saudi Champs-Élysées Boulevard in Diriyah will be the same.
Additionally, the plans for the Diriyah Champs-Élysées include a contemporary art museum and a 20,000-seat performance seat area.
The Saudi Arabia Champs-Élysées Boulevard development is part of the second phase of the Diriyah Gate development, and a piece of the Diriyah Gate Development Authority’s big plans of preserving the historic and culture-filled area while bringing in new concepts.
