2 Days in Jeddah || Saudi Arabia Travel Vlog

Sprawled out along the coast of the Red Sea, old homes and sprawling skyscrapers compose Saudi Arabia’s second largest city, Jeddah. The city is recreating itself as an entertainment capital revitalizing its historic homes and building up its coastal walkways with an F1 race track and commercial shopping area. Its heritage is renowned as the gateway to Mecca, the most significant pilgrimage of Islam. The port city was once the full of pilgrims preparing and resupply ing before their hike 50 mile hike up into the holiest city. The city was full of contrast. my first day I wandered through the maze of the old town admiring Jeddahs ancient architecture. The second day took me up the coast to see the shiny skyscrapers that snake their way along the corniche. Saudi was full of surprises, Jeddah was no exception and here’s how it went…

Hi there Zach.❤
I didn't it coming. I didn't know that you visited Jeddah too after Riyadh.
Amazing direction and photography, specially the Balad area. I have been to Jeddah twice, but never visited it oy went to Mecca. The AL Shafi Mosque is amazing. Great friends you made. The gateway of Mecca is amazing, however they have not maintained the area regarding cleanliness. The fish market is amazing, fresh fish from the red sea. One thing I like most about you is the love for the Fish market, as we most do who love fish from the sea. . The AlnRahma masjid on the Cornish, is eye catching. The words that you choose so nice and depicting the story is awesome. Masterpiece. Your photography is as compatible and competent as of a Hollywood director of photography .
Thanks once again for another lovely Vlog. Take care.❤

Lovely pics of old Jeddah . Spent a year there in 90s . Strange country and very intolerant. Loved the red sea .

Interesting video to see the changes. I lived and worked in Jeddah from 1984-1994. It was an amazing time and experience. Although very different than now, as it was a bit more conservative then. Only expats no tourists.

[bernardmccabe]

Very cool! Im heading there in November but i wasnt olanning on taking my drone because i heard its a bit of a hassle to register it and get it in?

[mrmarinhodaniel]

Hello. Really nice video. Where would u say is a nice spot to stay and have walk distance things to explore (cultural, sightseeing, shops and places to eat)?

[aleempatel]
