Jeddah — The Bride of the Red Sea
On the shores of the Red Sea, the city of Jeddah shines as one of the most enchanting and diverse tourist destinations. Jeddah has long remained the most important historic port and the gateway to the Two Holy Mosques, and has developed a unique identity in which multiple cultures blend to form a vibrant tapestry of life, colour and genuine hospitality, encapsulated by its famous slogan: “Jeddah is different”. It is characterised by its own unique rhythm, combining the tranquillity of the sea with the pulse of modernity. From the neighbourhoods of “Historic Jeddah” (Al-Balad), which exude the scent of history and are listed by UNESCO, to the enchanting coral beaches of “Abhur”, which offer unforgettable diving experiences, and as the sun sets, the city is illuminated by the majestic ‘King Fahd’s Fountain’ – the world’s tallest fountain – heralding the start of enchanting evenings amidst artistic and cultural festivals.
