Saudi Arabia's rapid transformation often grabs headlines, but what fascinates me most is how the country balances rapid change with a deep respect for its cultural heritage. In addition to towering skyscrapers and tech hubs, the Kingdom is also home to ancient Nabatean sites, bustling souks, and local festivals where traditions come alive. As I explore the country’s cultural landscape, I see how historical roots shape modern identity in ways that feel both surprising and natural. This rich heritage isn't just preserved in museums—it's alive, evolving, and resonating with the younger generation. It's in the way traditional values meet contemporary ambitions, creating a unique fusion that's redefining what it means to be Saudi today. Modern Saudi Arabia is proof that embracing your heritage doesn’t necessarily mean clinging to the past. In fact, it’s a reminder that our past serves as the ultimate foundation to build a dynamic, forward-looking society. In a world where everything moves so fast, there’s something powerful about a country that leans on its roots to build its future. It makes me think: how do we stay true to who we are while embracing what’s to come? #NEOMHeritage #CulturalHeritage #SaudiArabia #NEOM #Heritage #Culture Image: ©️ Ministry of Culture

Did You Know? Ancient Egyptians were among the pioneers of maritime trade, utilizing the Nile River as a vital artery for transporting goods such as timber, ivory, and precious stones. They developed robust wooden cargo ships crafted from local acacia and imported cedar, which played a crucial role in Egypt's economic prosperity and cultural expansion. These ships were equipped with sails strategically positioned to harness the wind, enabling efficient navigation against the Nile's currents. The ancient Egyptians' maritime prowess extended beyond the Nile, as their cargo ships ventured into the Mediterranean Sea, facilitating trade with neighboring civilizations. These voyages were not merely commercial endeavors but also contributed to cultural exchange and diplomatic relations, solidifying Egypt's status as a dominant regional power during antiquity. At Ruswal Global, we continue to honor this legacy of maritime excellence. Since 2014, specializing in cargo and marine inspections, we ensure the safe and compliant transport of goods worldwide.

''Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MbS) of Saudi Arabia was last month slated to visit Japan for the first time in five years. However, he canceled the trip due to concerns about King Salman’s health, with Japan announcing that it would be rescheduled. Although details of the planned visit are unclear, there is clarity about the motives for engagement on both sides.
