GATEWAY TO SAUDI

Jeddah
Jeddah, a vibrant city on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast, is a blend of rich cultural heritage and modern development. Jeddah is also a gateway for tourists, offering a unique mix of traditional markets, historical sites, and modern attractions.
The city has long been a hub for international trade, with its strategic position near the Red Sea facilitating the flow of goods between the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. Jeddah is also the main port for those arriving in Saudi Arabia to perform the Hajj pilgrimage, as it is the closest major city to the holy city of Makkah. The city’s waterfront, known as the Corniche, is a picturesque stretch along the Red Sea, offering expansive views, beautiful parks, and modern public spaces, making it a popular place for both residents and visitors.
Jeddah is famous for its rich history, seen in landmarks such as the historic Al-Balad district, a UNESCO World Heritage site, which features ancient coral-stone houses and narrow alleys that reflect the city's origins as a bustling port town. Modern Jeddah, however, is a thriving metropolis with high-rise buildings, luxury shopping malls, international restaurants, and a growing art scene. The city is also home to a number of world-class hotels, resorts, and entertainment venues, offering a perfect balance between tradition and modernity.
