Providing accurate and relevant information about the tourism places is considered as the best way to encourage and increase the number of tourists in any country. Nowadays; the internet plays an important role in providing this information to the tourists through the uploaded information about the tourism places using the World Wide Web. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is characterized by the presence of many places of tourism, whether religious tourism or eco-tourism, as religious tourism in the Kingdom is one of the most important sources of income and one of the largest pillars of the economy in the Kingdom, and environmental tourism is an important element of the tourist's attractions. The aim of this work is to design and implement an intelligent platform that will help the tourists to get accurate and relevant information about the tourism places such as location, restaurants and events. The proposed work was designed and implemented using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), Microsoft Access 2010 and Visual Studio programming languages. The proposed tourism system will be able to provide accurate and relevant information to the tourists about tourism places at the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and provide the tourists with recommendations for places to visit based on their preferences.
