Saudi King Salman attended on Tuesday evening the annual celebration of Saudi Ardha traditional dance as part of the Janadriyah Festival.
The festivities are part of the 32nd National Festival of Heritage and Culture held at the Saudi Pavilion in Riyadh.
The Saudi ‘Ardha’ dance used to be performed in times of war and victory; but now it is like the official dance of the country.
It is performed in all occasions, in which the king and the princes share the celebrations with the citizens and express sentiments of joy and peace.
