[Visiting art galleries and museums is one of the joys of traveling]
Visiting art galleries and museums at my travel destinations has become one of the joys of my trips.
I love being able to see works that can only be seen at that specific museum, and it is also fun to see how things are exhibited in that particular region. When you go to the local site, you can sometimes see interesting facets that aren't widely publicized.
This time, too, I went with the casual thought that I should visit if there was a museum, but I was shocked and completely absorbed by the carefully curated exhibits and the beautiful exhibition rooms that delved deep into Saudi Arabia. It was a moment where I felt that this is why I love traveling—because of these kinds of encounters.
Both the permanent and special exhibitions can be viewed for free, so if you have the time, please do visit!
