U.S. Ambassador Commends Expo of Salman bin Abdulaziz, Leadership in Architectural Heritage
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 13 - 01 - 2013

U.S. Ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia James Smith has expressed his admiration of the Exhibition of Salman bin Abdulaziz, Leadership in Architectural Heritage, describing it as a window for Kingdom's
architectural heritage.
He said the Exhibition enables visitors to witness the Kingdom's cultural richness and its civilizational depth in its various dimensions.
During his the accompanying delegation's recent visit to the National Museum at King Abdulaziz Historical Center, Ambassador Smith said, "What we have seen of civilizational landmarks as reflected by the exhibition's paintings, and replicas of architectural projects, confirms Saudi people's continual building of civilization by the Saudi people.
At the same time, it clearly demonstrates the intensive efforts of Crown Prince Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Deputy Premier and Minister of Defense in the service of heritage and his care for it for a long time.
He explained that the Crown Prince enjoys deep insight in supporting the national heritage and paying attention to it, and his efforts in this area surpass local and regional arenas to different countries, and this is clear in supporting the Exhibition of Saudi Arabia's Archaeological Masterpieces Through the Ages which has been recently inaugurated by Prince Sultan bin Salman bin Abdulaziz, President of Saudi Commission for Tourism and Antiquities (SCTA), in Washington.
The U.S. Ambassador commended Crown Prince Sultan bin Salman for his care for the Kingdom's heritage and introducing it to global horizons, adding that the Exhibition of Saudi Arabia's Masterpieces plays an important role in the introduction to the peoples of the world the Kingdom's civilizational heritage, its distinguished cultural diversity and historical status.
"Moreover, the impact of the exhibition surpasses the introduction of the Kingdom's civilization to the enhancement of relations between states and peoples, especially the United States of America," he said.
The U.S. ambassador described the National Museum as a prominent civilizational landmark in the city of Riyadh, and its contents confirm the Kingdom's cultural and civilizational depth.
