Yemen - the real Arabia

by MichaelFalk1969 - last update: Jul 11, 2007

The oil money has led to the creation of many ultramodern Arabian destinations trying to outshine Hongkong, but the Yemen is a totally different world. Due to the lack of oil or other natural ressources, both the traditional architecture and the Yemeni way of life have remained relatively unspoiled.

The unique qualities of Yemen are a fascinating traditional architecture, especially in the Old Town of Sanaa, the beauty of its sometimes rugged, sometimes fertile landscapes, its deserts and mountains, and above all the friendly and welcoming Yemenis.

Pros:"very friendly people, architecture, diverse landscapes"
Cons:"wild rubbish dumps, lack of western-standard tourist facilities"
