About An Nuzhah

An Nuzhah serves the district it is named after in north-east Riyadh: an at-grade station on Line 2 (Red), on King Abdullah Road, between Ministry of Education and Riyadh Exhibition Center. The district is a large residential one, threaded with schools, mosques, services and everyday retail, and most of the station's traffic flows to and from it — residents heading out in the morning to offices in the north of the city or the centre, and coming home in the evening. Added to that are passengers bound for events at the exhibition centre just to the east, who often get off a stop early to dodge the crush. Its position one stop from the interchange is quietly useful: a single westbound hop puts you on Line 5 (Green) and then straight south towards the National Museum without a second change. Eastbound, the line stays at ground level only as far as Riyadh Exhibition Center, where it climbs onto viaduct for the run out to Al Hamra and the eastern districts.

It sits between Ministry of Education and Riyadh Exhibition Center on Line 2.

It is an at grade station and runs to the network hours: 5:30 am to midnight Saturday to Thursday, and from 10:00 am on Friday. The SAR 4 two-hour ticket covers the metro and the buses. Below you will find the station on the map, journey times, interchanges and facilities.

Frequently asked questions

An Nuzhah is on Line 2 (Red) of the Riyadh Metro, which runs from King Saud University to King Fahad Sport City.
Yes, it is built at grade, like Ministry of Education one stop to the west. Line 2 stays at ground level through this section before climbing onto viaduct at Riyadh Exhibition Center, the next station eastbound, so An Nuzhah is one of the easiest stops on the line to enter.
The An Nuzhah residential district surrounds it, with mosques, schools, daily shops and services strung along King Abdullah Road. The Riyadh International Convention and Exhibition Center is not far to the east, though it is the next station along that is named for it and sits closest to the halls.
Take a westbound train one stop to Ministry of Education. It is a single shared station where Line 2 (Red) and Line 5 (Green) meet, and Line 5 starts there, running south towards the National Museum. The change is made inside the station and costs nothing on top of your ticket.
Service at An Nuzhah station runs to the Riyadh Metro network hours: from 05:30 to 00:00 Saturday to Thursday, and on Friday from 10:00 to 00:00. Hours change during Ramadan and the Eid holidays and are announced at the time — check the schedule page before you travel.
Yes. There are ticket vending machines (TVMs) at Riyadh Metro stations, and you can buy a card or top it up there or at a ticket office. Note that the darb app does not top up the card balance — full details on the darb card page.
