The film opens on Madinah at dawn and the Prophet’s Mosque, then moves to Al Alyaa itself: tree-lined promenades, landscaped courtyards and mid-rise residential buildings set against the mountains east of the city. A visit to Quba Mosque reminds viewers how close daily life here is to the holy sites.
An aerial view of the masterplan leads into the key numbers: 1,420 apartments and about 70,000 m² of green spaces and pathways. The film then shows the Haramain High-Speed Railway, shopping and dining, cafés, families walking through the gardens, a swimming pool and sports courts, before closing on Al Alyaa at night with Knowledge Economic City’s line: “Your destination to Live. Work. Invest.”
