Neighbourhoods in Riyadh
Al-Mansurah (Arabic: المنصورة), alternatively romanized as al-Mansourah and formerly known as Khanshaleelah, (Arabic: خنشليلة, lit. 'khan of Jaleelah') is a historic neighborhood in southern Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, located east of Manfuhah and west of al-Khalidiyyah in the sub-municipalities of al-Batʼha and Aziziya. It was once a stopover for Hajj pilgrims on the traditional route arriving from the east and was named after a 16th century local woman, Jaleelah bint Abdul Mohsen ad-Dar'iy, who had donated her house as a caravanserai to accommodate the travelers enroute to Mecca.
