Touring the Middle East: Saudi Arabia | Free World Heritage Old City of Jeddah

Name: Old Jeddah (Old Jeddah) Nature: World Cultural Heritage Location: Downtown Jeddah, Saudi Arabia Architectural Features: All windows and balconies are made of protruding bronze or turquoise green carved wooden structures, completely without the use of glass, featuring wind protection and ventilation, light transmission and shading. According to local sayings, Muslim women can chat through the windows without leaving their homes (which is actually poor sound insulation, yet it's described so elegantly...) Building Condition: Particularly old and dangerous buildings have been protected; some have only the first floor open as shops, while others have been fully renovated and are open to the public; Tour Difficulty: Zero, just need legs, and wheelchairs work too; Tour Cost: Zero, the old city is free, museums are free, ancient mosques are free; Tour Duration: 1-3 hours Selfie Photography: The effect is maximized, but it is important to note that you can't wear whatever you want, it's not a place for little fairies to fight, you need to respect local religious customs.
