Saudi Arabia is planning to build a building that is expected to accommodate the whole city. Reports say that the building will be constructed at the desert in the north west of the Gulf country. It will accommodate up to 9 million people and stretch 106 miles across the desert.
The building will be like a line that will be 200 meters wide and 500 meters high. The building will cover over 34 square kilometers according to the design that has been revealed.
Prince Mohammed bin Salman who is the crown of the Kingdom will be the one in charge of the construction.
Reports claim that the entire building will operate on renewable energy. This means that petrol and diesel auto-motives will not be part of forms of transportation in the one-building city. The city will be operated by artificial intelligence. Some of the technologies that will be employed in the building include; artificial moon, flying taxis, robot maids and a high-speed train.
Saudi Arabia aim to reach 100 million visitors though the building and this will increase the local economy by billions. The project is named as ‘coined Vision 2030’ and is expected to take years until it’s completion.
The building will be mirrored and is said to enhance human livability. The project is supported by $500 billion by Saudi Arabian Government and investors.
On the others hand there are claims of violation of rights of migrant workers in the Kingdom. This includes unpaid or delayed wages and confiscation of their passports.
