Al-Fouta (Arabic: الفوطة), alternatively transliterated as al-Futa, is a neighborhood in central Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, located south of al-Murabba and north of al-Dirah in the sub-municipality of al-Malaz.
[1] It popularly hosts the Riyadh Water Tower, one of the notable landmarks in the city as well as the rest of the southern portion of the King Abdulaziz Historical Center, including the eponymous al-Fouta Park.
[2][3] As the neighborhood is bounded by al-Batʼha Street to the east, its eastern strip partially forms part of the al-Batʼha commercial area.
The neighborhood is unofficially divided into two sections, Fouta East (Arabic: الفوطة الشرقية) and Fouta West (Arabic: الفوطة الغربية).
