Jeddah Roundabouts

by TomorrowsAngel - last update: Jul 28, 2003

Jeddah is a city of sculptures.
roundabout
It has over 400 sculptures and other exhibits as centrepieces on the roundabouts, median strips and along the corniche.
hanging lamps roundabout - near King Fahd's Palace
These lamps light up at night.
Some of these are quite spectacular - a giant penny farthing bicycle, a flotilla of full size ex-navy gunboats complete with fighter escort, a decommissioned DC 10 airliner, cars embedded in a vast concrete block and sculptures created from the old desalination plant.
military roundabout
Their diversity is extraordinary, from the solid curves of Henry Moore to the poetic beauty of Mustafa Sunbal's seagulls in flight.
boat roundabout
They are a good talking point, nonetheless, and in Jeddah everyone has his favourite sculpture.
globe roundabout
An area of the Corniche boasts genuine Henry Moore works of art.
