The teamLab Borderless Museum in Jeddah is located in Historic Jeddah as a collaboration between the Saudi Ministry of Culture and the teamLab international artistic group under the initiatives of the Quality of Life Program, reported the Saudi Press Agency on Thursday.

The program is part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, aiming to bring a qualitative addition to the cultural scene in the Kingdom.

The museum combines arts, technology, and nature in an innovative, creative space. It features about 80 independent and interconnected works, creating a world without borders. One of its notable spaces is the "Borderless World," where visitors can learn about the world through their bodies.

Covering an area of approximately 10,000 square meters, the Borderless Museum is the first teamLab museum launched in the Middle East.

It is permanently situated on the banks of Lake Al-Arbaeen, offering panoramic views of Historic Jeddah, a UNESCO World Heritage-listed site.

This teamLab project is part of the initiative to develop the infrastructure of cultural exhibitions, which is in line with the efforts to increase cultural offerings in the Kingdom.
