Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:For Шаблон:Use dmy datesШаблон:Infobox themed area Boulevard World (BLVD World) (Шаблон:Lang-ar) is a seasonal entertainment zone and recreational complex located adjacent to Boulevard City at the Prince Turki al-Awwal Road in the Hittin neighborhood of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Opened in 2022, it operates primarily during the annual Riyadh Season entertainment festival and features recreated replicas of iconic landmarks from several Transatlantic and Asian countries. Besides being a high-end miniature park, it also features the Lake Lagoon, a 12-hectares large man-made lake.

Overview

Boulevard World was first introduced in October 2022 when the chairman of General Entertainment Authority Turki bin Abdul Mohsen al-Sheikh posted a three-minute trailer of the entertainment zone on his official Twitter handle.

Riyadh Season 2022

Boulevard World was inaugurated on 21 November 2022 during the 2022 edition of Riyadh Season, making it the season's largest zone. The inauguration coincided with the commencement of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. The zone showcases recreated replicas of several landmarks from ten countries in its eleven sub-zones, that include United States, France, Italy, Morocco, Greece, India, China, Japan, Spain and Mexico. In December 2022, Saudi Gazette reported that the Lagoon Lake in Boulevard World made into the Guinness World Records as the largest artificial lake in the world with an area of 12.19 hectares and a height of 33.7 meters. In January 2023, Turki Al-Sheikh announced the extension of Boulevard World by the end of March 2023, a move similar to the extension of Boulevard Riyadh City in 2019 which was made by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman due to its soaring popularity. Boulevard World hosted the Saudi Founding Day, a national holiday to commemorate the establishment of the First Saudi State in 1727. On 22 March 2023, Boulevard World concluded services for the 2022 edition of Riyadh Season and temporarily ceased operations.
