The Night Before Summer

RIYADH: Really?!? Are you just gonna sit there waiting till winter is gone? This is the simple question that triggers us (#teamyahamad) to push and make it happen for an overnight stay in the desert overlooking the city, with a starry starry sky while enjoying the thin, crisp cold air.

Well better late than never, if you wanna experience a night in the desert with your good company of friends, sharing nice food, hot tea, crazy stories and funny jokes while sitting in circle near a bonfire, in a place not so far far away (just in Riyadh and most importantly it’s for Free!); well pack your bags now and grab some tents and blankets “yallah Hamad!” go ahead to Thumama National Park, Riyadh.  (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Thumamah+National+Park/@25.1177144,46.6628615,13.96z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x3e2e9f9af85d5295:0x9944f9842561e504!8m2!3d25.1226414!4d46.6706917) (http://www.thumamapark.com/) (https://www.google.com/maps/place/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%A7%D8%B0%D8%B1%D9%8A%D8%A9%D8%8C+Riyadh%E2%80%AD/@25.1164856,46.6687083,12.21z/data=!4m12!1m6!3m5!1s0x3e2e9f9af85d5295:0x9944f9842561e504!2sThumamah+National+Park!8m2!3d25.1226414!4d46.6706917!3m4!1s0x3e2e9271b187b787:0x7e1a2c292c0e01a8!8m2!3d25.0950044!4d46.6633129)
