lots and lots and lots of shops of every kind, BUT traffic sucks (more than the usual) as there is lots of construction going on and non stop fender benders. With that said there is a ton of back roads that you can take if you explore and drive around... I live in the Ishbillia Village, about 3.5 miles East from Exit 9 road, which is the one i usually take to come and go.

Yup jpm19 is very right. I live on Exit-7 which is very close. Once the major ongoing construction on Imam Saud road completes, the area will be amazing.

We in exit ten, and usually it takes about 45mins if we live at 6:25 to get to olaya everyday. This week it's been taking us 2omins, probably because some new road has opened. Other than that, everything you need can be found in the area - restaurants, mall etc.

True--in my opinion, that's the best part of town and Granada Mall is my favorite.

hi twonnny,

Try the area behind the SABIC building. Relatively a new area and prices are okay.
