  • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you are planning on stopping in Jiddah then moving to Makkah for Hajj or Umra,,you might need an umbrella,not for the rain,,but to protect you from sun stroke!!
    Plus we have many shops that sells umbrellas.
    Here is a picture of Jiddah from the 13th floor,most houses are coloured with light colours to prevent the heat.

     Just returned to see what's new since 2004. Quite a bit. Very interesting! First you made me hungry--delicious food suggestions--then you guided me to "Fitness Clubs." Not fair! lol I enjoyed your additions as much as the older ones!!!
