Ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of life in the region
Historically, the Qassim region has been known for its agricultural nature and green oases, which form an integral part of its cultural and environmental identity. In recent years, in line with the goals of the Kingdom's Vision 2030 and the Quality of Life Program, the region has witnessed a qualitative leap in the development of recreational infrastructure and an increase in per capita green spaces.
