Carbondale Vs. Riyadh

What is the difference between Carbondale and Riyadh? It was the first question that most of my family and friends asked me about. In fact, there are many differences between these two cities. First, the type of transportation is different. In Carbondale, many people use bicycle, bus, car, and foot, but in Riyadh most people use cars. Second, the style of building is different in the two cites. In Riyadh, we have many new towers and huge buildings. On the other hand, Carbondale is a simple city and there are not any towers. Also, the population is one of the biggest differences between the two cities. In Riyadh, there are more than five million people who live in the city, but Carbondale has almost 30,000 people. Next, the weather in Carbondale is one of the amazing things in this city except the winter. In Riyadh the weather is too hot and sunny in the summer and too cold and dry in the winter. Four, in Carbondale, we do not have a lot of choices when we go shopping. On the other hand, we call Riyadh “the city of shopping” because we have more than 3000 malls. Five, in Carbondale most the stores close at 9 p.m., but in Riyadh the normal time is 12 p.m. Moreover, in Riyadh, there are many new bridges and huge roads, but in Carbondale are small roads. Finally, even though there are many differences between Riyadh and Carbondale, I like both of them.
