The Old Camel Market, situated approximately 30 kilometres north of Riyadh, is one of the largest such trading grounds on the Arabian Peninsula. This sprawling, dusty arena offers a direct encounter with an enduring tradition, where Bedouin traders assess, present and haggle over hundreds of dromedaries. The atmosphere is immersive and unfiltered, defined by the din of negotiation and the distinct, earthy scent of the animals. While the trading continues throughout the day, the activity peaks in the late afternoon. It is advisable to confirm its current location before visiting, as urban development has prompted relocations in the past.

Lake Maschsee is one of the city's most popular destinations, and a maritime paradise for everyone who wants to go for a swim, for a ride or for a picnic. While offering a recreational area in the very heart of the city, sports happens both on the water and all around it, for yachting, canoeing and pedal-boating as well as for joggers, skaters and strollers.

Chaotian Gate is a great place to have a glimpse of the confluence of the Yangtze River and Jialing River. During early summer or mid-autumn, the contrast between the muddy Yangtze and the clear waters of Jialing becomes clear. Close to the river, you will find the dock for the many tour boats that travel along the city landmarks.
