One of Two Ships in the Desert!

A ship in the middle of the desert and old school GMC.One of the most remarkable things about living in Riyadh is the shear number of reminders you have about your Lord. These particular weighty statements (above) are posted at each of the two entrances. This is an overt reminder, but those that are intertwined in the fabric of the society and culture are numerous as well.
I am assuming this is used as a wedding hall, among other things. The inscription above says 'Yacht for Banqueting and Conferences'.


The second ship only 5 minutes from our home is going to be a hotel. It is not complete as of yet.
