1. Step back in time with a visit to Historic Jeddah — locally known as “Al-Balad.” Nestled in the heart of the city, this UNESCO-listed district offers a captivating journey through centuries of culture and heritage. Believed by some to date back to pre-Islamic times, Historic Jeddah rose to prominence in 647 AD (26 AH) when Caliph Uthman ibn Affan declared it the official port of Makkah. Wander its charming alleyways, explore its timeless architecture, and uncover the rich stories behind its iconic landmarks — every corner has a tale to tell.

About Jeddah

Jeddah, on the Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia, is an old trading port and the gateway to Mecca, with a historic district of coral-stone houses.

Jeddah has been a port on the Red Sea since ancient times, and a landing point for pilgrims travelling to Mecca, which lies to the east. Al-Balad, its old quarter and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, preserves tall coral-stone houses with carved wooden balconies, called roshan, and narrow lanes, and the souks around them still trade in spices, textiles and perfume.
