The Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities Riyadh Region, and Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh at Kingdom Centre have teamed up to launch an Instagram Photo Contest which offers a platform for locals, hotel guests, and visitors of Riyadh, to showcase the most beautiful images of the city starting April 22nd until May 27th, 2015.
Every Wednesday, participants will be presented with a theme. They must follow @FSRiyadh and @Alriyadhtour to be eligible for the contest and enter their original photo using the hashtag #FSRiyadhLove with their interpretation of the theme. Weekly winners will be revealed the following Wednesday and will receive a complimentary one night weekend stay at Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh in a Superior Room including breakfast. Those same weekly winners will be entered into the final round of the photo contest where a grand prize winner will be awarded a complimentary one night weekend stay at Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh in a Presidential Suite including breakfast.  
“Instagram is a very popular social media channel in Saudi Arabia and we wanted to capitalize on its popularity and offer a way for Saudis to be ambassadors of their city by presenting their snapped masterpieces of Riyadh and show the world what the city has to offer” says Engineer Abdulaziz Al-Hassan, General Manager of the Saudi Commission For Tourism and Antiquities in Riyadh region.

“The #FSRiyadhLove Photo Contest seeks to challenge the image of Riyadh as being a business destination”, says Anthony Tyler, General Manager at Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh. “The city has so much more to offer, with unique and diverse heritage of natural and archaeological sites which support the country in becoming a central destination for touristic and family travel”.

By combining efforts, the Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities- Riyadh Branch and Four Seasons Hotel Riyadh will play a positive role in promoting the city both locally and internationally.
