Ronaldo used a swоrd as part of the Saudi Founding Day celebrations.
And the iconic striker wore the nation’s traditional attire at his new stadium.
Ronaldo looked like he was enjoying his day with a difference
Ronaldo, 38, has joined Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr after being criticized by Manchester United for his explosive interview with Piers Morgan.
Now after accepting a lucrative £173m-a-year deal in the Middle East, Ronaldo is immersing himself in his new culture.
February 22 marks the day Imam Muhammad bin Saud helped found Saudi Arabia in 1727.
Last year, King Salman declared the day a national holiday in a royal decree.
The four-day holiday features a host of cultural events which take place across Saudi Arabia, with Ronaldo joining in at Al-Nassr’s Stadium, Mrsool Park, which he now calls home.
Ronaldo and his teammates drank an Arabic drink and wore a thin white robe – a smart cotton robe.
The Portuguese superstar – who has moved into a luxurious residence in Riyadh – is always smiling and even winking his signature when swinging his swоrd.
He wrote on Twitter: “Happy founding day to Saudi Arabia
“Was a special experience to participate in the celebration at @AlNassrFC!”
Ronaldo and his teammates at the “Fund Creation Day” ceremony. This is a day for charity, donating wealth and money to the organization to raise funds. Al Nassr Club held its own fund-raising day on the 22-2 national fund-raising day.
Plenty of supporters flooded the replies with comments of adoration for the five-time Ballon d’Or winner.
Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr just days after seeing long-term rival Lionel Messi lift the World Cup as Argentina captain in neighboring Qatar.
The PSG forward was draped in a traditional Arab Bisht – given to him by Qatar Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani as a sign of respect.
Ronaldo has played five times for his new club, immediately claiming the captaincy.
He scored his first goal in a 2-2 draw with Al-Fateh but truly announced his arrival with all four in the 4-0 thrashing of Al-Wehda.
He wore a thawb while sipping an Arabic drink, the symbol of hospitality

The fund-raising ceremony is typical of Islam. Ronaldo dresses in Islamic style.
