The Ithra Tour takes visitors on a journey through one of the most ambitious cultural and artistic projects in Saudi Arabia—the Ithra (King Abdulaziz Center for World Culture). Located in Dhahran, in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, Ithra is a landmark destination that blends culture, education, and innovation, making it a hub for creativity, knowledge, and inspiration.
Ithra, which means “enrichment” in Arabic, was established by Aramco (Saudi Arabian Oil Group) as part of its commitment to promoting culture and fostering a knowledge-based economy in the Kingdom. Opened in 2018, the center stands as a monumental project that combines a world-class museum, library, theater, art galleries, and interactive exhibits, all housed within a futuristic architectural design.
The Ithra Tour typically offers a comprehensive experience, guiding visitors through its impressive facilities and unique exhibitions. One of the center’s most notable features is the Ithra Museum, a state-of-the-art cultural institution that showcases Saudi Arabia's rich heritage, as well as international art and history. The museum features a wide range of permanent and temporary exhibits, including archaeological artifacts, contemporary art installations, and interactive displays that educate visitors on Saudi Arabia's cultural evolution.
Another key highlight of the Ithra Tour is the King Abdulaziz Center's Library, a vast collection of books, research materials, and digital resources. This library is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and readers, providing a space to learn and explore a wide range of subjects in multiple languages. The library also plays a vital role in Ithra's mission to promote education and knowledge across different disciplines.
The Ithra Theater is another must-visit on the tour. This world-class performance venue hosts a variety of cultural events, including plays, concerts, film screenings, and dance performances. The theater is an iconic structure with cutting-edge acoustics and a stunning design, making it a central hub for performing arts in Saudi Arabia.
In addition to the museum, library, and theater, the Ithra Tour often includes visits to the Children's Museum, which is designed to engage young minds with interactive exhibits and hands-on activities that focus on science, culture, and creativity. The Idea Lab, a space dedicated to innovation and creativity, offers workshops and programs that encourage visitors of all ages to explore their creative potential.
Ithra also boasts a cinema that screens a diverse range of films, from international blockbusters to regional films, offering a dynamic film culture experience. The art galleries within the center host both Saudi and international artists, providing a platform for the vibrant contemporary art scene in the Kingdom.
