Which skyscraper in Riyadh has a distinctive sky bridge near its top?

Riyadh’s Kingdom Centre has a distinctive sky bridge near its top.

Kingdom Centre is a mixed-use skyscraper in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, developed by Kingdom Holding Company and completed in 2002. Its most recognizable feature is the inverted parabolic arch at the top, which contains a steel sky bridge connecting the two sides of the opening.

The bridge is also called the Sky Bridge and provides panoramic views across Riyadh. The tower includes offices, apartments, a hotel, and a shopping mall, so it is more than a single-purpose observation structure.

Kingdom Centre is sometimes confused with Al Faisaliah Center, another famous Riyadh skyscraper. Al Faisaliah has a large glass globe near its top, whereas Kingdom Centre is identified by its open arch and elevated bridge. This visual distinction makes the two buildings easy to separate when comparing Saudi Arabia’s modern skyline.
