Jeddah
Jeddah, a port city on the Red Sea in Saudi Arabia, is a modern commercial hub and a gateway for pilgrimages to Islam's holy cities of Mecca and Medina. Hotels, beaches and outdoor sculptures dot the Corniche, a promenade to which the famous King Fahd Fountain connects. The historic Al-Balad district dates back to the 7th century and preserves traditional houses built with coral.
