Experience the hidden treasures of Jeddah. Getting to know the Saudi Arabian city through a lens.

'Jeddah', meaning "ancestor of women", was so-named because of a tomb housed in the city believed to be that of the world's first female, Eve. The second largest city in Saudi Arabia after Riyadh, it is the gateway through which many pilgrims arrive to perform the Umrah and Haj pilgrimages.

Al-Balad
The historic centre of Jeddah is 2,500 year old, where glass-windowed skyscrapers sub corners with ancient buildings
