Stay in Jeddah… The Bride of the Red Sea

Jeddah, also spelled as Jidda, Jiddah, or Juddah, is a Saudi Arabian port city on the Red Sea. It’s also said that “Jeddah” is originally derived from “Jaddah," which is the Arabic word for "Grandmother." The reason behind the name is the possibility that The Tomb of Eve, who is considered the grandmother of humanity, could be located in Jeddah. Despite that the accuracy of such a belief is debatable, Jeddah does enjoy a long history that goes back centuries. For instance, the ancient district of Al-Balad holds 500-year-old buildings formed from the Red Sea Coral. The city is included in UNESCO historic center list as well. Yet, Jeddah didn’t stop here. Its unique location qualified it to be the largest commercial hub in the Kingdom. Besides, pilgrims cross it to reach Mecca. Thus, your trip will be indeed fascinating, especially with the variety of hotels in Jeddah, stunning beaches, and adventurous activities.  Explore  Jeddah with Almosafer and find the best hotels in Jeddah, things to do and the best restaurants in the city.
