Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, home to one of the most conservative cultures on earth. Despite public photography being somewhat difficult, over time I will be attempting to highlight some images illustrating some of the main characteristics and features of this unique city. However it is no accident there are limited people shots on this gallery!
This gallery is a project in progress and will be building it up gradually so be sure to return!

One of many shmagh (male Gulf Arab headdress) shops in Riyadh ....to the uninitiated, these shmaghs look pretty much the same; but they're not!
There's a difference in the shade of red (from bright red to an almost purplish red), .. as well as the stripes pattern running parallel to the edge.
Prices range from about $25 to $65 each depending on brand, material, size and stripes pattern. Bottom row 3rd right is a $65 Dunhill!
