    Irqah Hospital is an iconic abandoned medical center located in the western hills of Riyadh. Constructed in the late twentieth century, the sprawling multi-story facility served briefly during the Gulf War before being abruptly deserted. Local urban folklore claims the empty wards and decaying corridors are inhabited by jinn, turning it into Saudi Arabia's most infamous site for thrill-seekers and ghost hunters.
