Wadi Saffar, a natural wonderland in the heart of Saudi Arabia’s Diriyah region, is a one-day getaway reputedly popular for looking-to-bond families, adventurous friend groups and meditation fanatics across the region. It’s about to be a lot more, though, with the upcoming opening of a hospitality venture Chedi by global hospitality company GHM.

Playing the same terrenal notes as the serene expanse that is Wadi Saffar, GHK’s Chedi resort is perfectly suited for the area’s calm and explorative air. Besides the array of physical adventures offered by the area’s bountiful natural breadth, the hypnotically tranquil setting embodied by Chedis all over the world allows for meditative mental and emotional undertakings like no other. Now that the subconscious powers of the two are joint, Wadi Saffar’s Chedi is bound to cement itself as a capital of sangfroid by seekers of tranquillity everywhere.

The property is set to span 14 square kilometres across the area, under the aim to host 27 million visitors a year; a vision working along Saudi Arabia’s goal to generate 100 million tourists by 2030. Besides the development of the hotel and complementary food and beverage establishments, the project will also be introducing a number of museums and galleries to cultivate cultural and educational exploration, as an ode to the rich history of Diriyah.
