LONDON/DUBAI: The night sky over Riyadh became illuminated in a sea of color as the Kingdom marked the start of the new decade with its first New Year fireworks display.

The display, which came just 10 years before the self-imposed deadline to Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 project, was watched around the globe and will likely be seen as yet another example of the Kingdom’s modernization.

The Saudi capital joined cities around the globe with their moments of attention with fireworks, music, and hi-tech lightshows.
