Thulaim

Thulaim (Arabic: ثليم, romanized: ṯulaīm) is a commercial and residential neighborhood in downtown Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, located south of al-Amal and north of Margab in the sub-municipality of al-Malaz,[1] situated on the edge of now dried up stream of Wadi al-Batʼha.

[2] The neighborhood is bounded by the al-Batʼha Street to the west, constituting its westernmost part in the al-Batʼha commercial area and is today inhabited mostly by overseas workers from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.

It is named after the Thulaim Palace,[3] which was itself attributed to an eponymous farm on which it was built by King Abdulaziz ibn Saud in present-day al-Fouta district in late 1930s.
