Al Oud Cemetery (Arabic: مقبرة العود) is a public cemetery in the al-Owd neighbourhood of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, known for being the resting place of many kings, queens, crown princes and royals of the second and current Saudi states.[1][2] The word "al-ʿŪud", in Peninsular Arabic means "elder (older person)", likely referring to King Abdulaziz, who was buried in the cemetery.[3]
