Saudi Arabia has launched a range of heritage attractions and experiences in the metaverse.
The Ministry of Culture’s Saudi Heritage Metaverse platform allows people in the Kingdom and around the world to take virtual reality history walks dedicated to music, art, history, culinary arts, and crafts, as well as play mini-video games.
The technology is the first national initiative supported by the artificial intelligence system for Generative Media Intelligence (GMI).

The platform offers a mix of cultural shows, performances and digital innovation powered by GMI technology, and hosts a dynamic digital environment that allows users to experience many activities and attractions “in real life” out of the celebration of the Kingdom’s Founding Day.
The Performance Centre will also stream live events including the Founding Day Commencement Symphony Concert on the ministry’s Metaverse platform.
The Ministry of Culture’s Metaverse platform is a fully immersive, and web-based experience ready for Mobile XR, ensuring accessibility across a wide range of devices, whether through mobile phones, VR headsets, desktops and other digital devices.
Users are guaranteed a seamless entry into the Metaverse to embody the Ministry of Culture’s commitment to inclusivity, enabling a diverse global audience to explore and participate in the rich history of Saudi culture.
This experience enables millions from the Kingdom, and from all over the world, to experience Saudi events in the Metaverse, which represents a turning point in cultural participation, and this initiative represents a major leap in the future of cultural expression and participation.
The application is presented in partnership with droppGroup and its World’s First “Phygital” Metaverse using Hyper ledger Fabric 2.5 block chain technology.
