Favorite thing: Jeddah World Biggesst Tent works as a an air port terminal. When they open the air port for the first time they said it is the largest area of a building ever. First to see when you get out if you come to jeddah by another airline instead of Saudia air line .Design taken from arabian tents construct for pilgrams near mecca to spend few days every year a part of rituals in Islamic Piilgramige called 'Hajj'. the terminal work only when the air port receive pilgrms in the last 3 monthies of the islamic years. Good ventilation system that keeps temp 5 degrees lower than out side.
Fondest memory: A photo of a jiddian Family 1934
Favorite thing: jeddah 's: Jubrita Square
Jubrilta is a name of a small sea water ntrance to the mediterianian from the west . Now it is a British Colony. Jubrilta means in Arabic JAbal TARIQ + Mountain of Tariq. He is the Famous Moslem who invaded Spain before12 centeuries. The Spanish said that they burned his ships in order of preventing him and his army from escaping. The Islamic history said when Tariq Army reached the edge of Spain he orderd burning of all ships to close the way for escape for his soulders and made the fight more. Any way in Islamic History he is a Hero
Favorite thing: Jeddah is an open museum. Visit the 'Cornich' the costal road of jeddah full of many piecies of arts. Cornich is 55 klm costal road north and 55 klm costal road south. northern costal road is very well consumed. Full of resturants and amusement parks. for traditional smokers many places for water pie or pipe. This water pipe or 'Shisha' is the most un civilized thing I hate because I now hate hate hate smoking.
Favorite thing: The World Tallest Fontain. You can see from Air plane before landing, and before 20 miles if you are driving from the east.
Fondest memory: Jeddah Cornich a place facing the coast offsure for 55 klm in north and 55 klm south of jeddah. full of open air arts and landscape
