Prince Sultan: Saudi Arabia Will Develop Tourism As A National Project

Prince Sultan talked about the SCTA’s steps to improve the investment environment for tourism and tourism marketing. He said “Saudi Arabia has been familiar with tourism for centuries and has been receiving millions of visitors from all over the world.” The Kingdom receives millions of Muslim pilgrims every year and is the birthplace of Islam and home of the Two Holy Mosques. The SCTA has implemented more than 140 projects and is organizing the International Conference of Architectural Heritage in Islamic countries. The conference is being held under the patronage of The Two Holy Mosques and will be held on April 18-23, 2010.
