Partner Content Saudi Green Initiative:
Photographer David Chancellor has credit the way in which Saudi Arabia is “moving forward” as a nation.
The National Geographic creator spoke to The Independent at the Saudi Green Initiative forum, following a two-week trip from Jeddah to Riyadh, travelling up the country's western coast, stopping at the historic AlUla and finally ending in the capital.
"I'd been here many years ago... and I hadn't had the type of access open access that I've had this time" Mr Chancellor said.
"To see the way Saudi Arabia is moving on is extraordinary".
