  • Old Riyadh (Arabic: الرياض القديمة, romanized: ar-Riyāḍ al-Qadīmah) is a loosely defined historical region primarily in the southern section of modern-day Riyadh, Saudi Arabia which either encompasses neighborhoods and settlements that emerged from ruins of Hajr al-Yamamah in late 16th century or areas that were once confined within the former city walls prior to its demolition in 1950. The term is alternatively applied to villages and former towns located along the outskirts of Riyadh such as Irqah and Manfuhah that were later incorporated into the metropolis and also on neighborhoods that were excluded during Riyadh's several phases of expansion and modernization, mostly between the 1950s and 1970s.
