Riyadh is filled with funfairs and play areas; some are open to families and some exclusive for men or women only.
1. Reptile World: Here you get to see live poisonous snakes, lizards, chameleons and skinks. In the video room, visitors can learn how researchers milk the venom from the poisonous snakes and how the particular antidote is prepared. What’s interesting is that by the end of the tour, if you are brave enough you even get to hold the snakes under guided supervision.
