ABSTRACT
Few people know about real Saudi history and culture; this is because what most people know is based on clichés based on word of mouth. Anchoring in new ways of combining existing technologies such as GPS, the web services, the cloud hosted information, 3D modelling and the services offered by mobile devices, the proposed system offers to the user, located at anywhere in Saudi Arabia, the ability to acquire desired information about his/her surroundings on a mobile device. Thus, the user's mobility and the mobile device location information can be obtained related to the city areas surrounding the user. As such, not only someone can visit Saudi Arabia, but also a global 360 degrees vision of the surroundings is possible related to the buildings, sightseeing and under constructions areas along with their history; in other words, providing a glance and insight into Saudi Arabia's past, present and future.
