Nestled in the AlUla desert is now a mesmerising architectural wonder, the largest mirror building in the world, designed by Italian architect Gio Forma. Maraya, which means

“mirrors” in Arabic, is set across 9,740 square metres and is covered in over 13,000 meticulously placed mirrors. Its seamless reflective surface glistens brilliantly, perfectly mirroring and blending in with the breathtaking beauty of the natural desert landscape that surrounds it. More than an architectural wonder, Maraya is also a versatile venue that can host events such as concerts, conferences, and cultural gatherings. Boasting state-of-the-art technology, it can accommodate up to 500 guests.
