#DifferentWorld #WorldWandering #BornForTheDesert Travel Guide for Jeddah: Saudi Arabia's second largest city, located on the east coast of the Red Sea, is the gateway to the Islamic holy cities of Mecca and Medina. Since this trip was a spur-of-the-moment decision, I didn't make much preparation. I just wanted to take advantage of the May Day holiday to find a place I hadn't been to before. First, I didn't change money in advance. I used credit cards in Saudi Arabia, which was very convenient. Second, I didn't make a guide. I just booked Jeddah and Riyadh as destinations, and first settled the transportation and accommodation. Indoor transportation was mainly Uber and Careem, which was very convenient. Because Jeddah's overall public transportation is very backward. After all, the cost of driving there is much lower. The oil price is only half of that in China. Third, I chose the Sheraton Hotel next to the Red Sea for accommodation. I can really see the sea when I get up and open the curtains. I can also run and walk along the Corniche at night. I can see many local families coming out for a picnic together. For safety reasons, it is recommended to choose a better hotel, because there are very few Chinese in Jeddah, and many people mistake us for Japanese or Koreans. 4. If the arrival date is Friday, please be prepared that many places will not be open during the day or in the morning, because their weekends are Friday and Saturday. 5. Recommended attractions -Jeddah Old Town (Al-Balad): It is said to be a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has many coral buildings built in the 19th century, such as Nasif House and Matbouli House Museum. Stroll through the narrow streets and feel the time travel. Don't go on Friday, there are almost no people. -Jeddah Corniche: A 30-kilometer seaside promenade suitable for walking, cycling, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Red Sea and the iconic Jeddah Fountain (King Fahd's Fountain). -Al Tayebat International City: A museum complex that showcases Saudi history, culture and art. It is very similar to the architecture of the old city. -King Fahd's Fountain: *The world's tallest fountain, with a water column as high as 312 meters. It is very ordinary, and I don't feel much. - Jeddah Floating Mosque: A beautiful mosque built on the sea, the scenery is particularly spectacular at sunset. Even sitting quietly and listening to the sea breeze is very pleasant. 6. Food I think I have a Chinese stomach, and the Chinese food in Jeddah is worth praising, it is really good. I especially recommend Jixinyuan. 7. Precautions Respect Islamic customs, avoid drinking, smoking, and revealing clothes in public places, especially women. In Saudi Arabia, there is no courage to wear skirts, all are long clothes and long pants, and can also protect against the sun. The overall English penetration rate here is not as high as that in the UAE, and it is still very challenging to communicate in skirts. It is recommended to download translation software in advance.

Watching the sunset next to Al-Rahma Mosque in Jeddah was honestly magical. The mosque itself is already stunning — it looks like it's floating on the sea — but when the sun starts to go down and the sky turns orange and pink, the whole place becomes unreal.🕌 People were sitting quietly, just soaking it all in. The sound of the waves, the cool breeze, the colors in the sky — everything felt so peaceful. You really get this feeling of calm and beauty at the same time. If you're in Jeddah, this is definitely one of those moments you don’t want to miss. Sunset + sea + mosque = unforgettable. 🌇🌴🩵 #jeddahtrips

🌟This is one of the richest countries in the world, full of oil and princes, simply incredibly wealthy. And since opening visas in 2019, restrictions were further eased in 2022. Chinese citizens can apply for electronic visas, with multiple entries within a year and stays of up to 90 days, making travel super convenient. Riyadh: A Blend of Modern and Traditional The capital, Riyadh, is a charming city. Here you'll find the 99-story "bottle opener"—Kingdom Centre Tower. Standing on the top-floor skybridge, you can overlook the entire bustling city😍. There's also the recognized World Heritage Site, At-Turaif District in ad-Dir'iyah, where Najdi-style architecture showcases a unique Arabian style. And the "Edge of the World" northwest of Riyadh is even more stunning. Standing in the desert, it feels like you're at the end of the world. AlUla: An Ancient Legend in the Desert AlUla, located in northwestern Saudi Arabia, is a must-visit to experience Saudi Arabia's ancient civilization and desert scenery. Hegra, Saudi Arabia's first UNESCO World Heritage Site, features over 130 tombs that resemble a large open-air museum. Elephant Rock, shaped like an elephant, is one of the iconic attractions of the AlUla Valley. There's also Maraya Concert Hall, the world's largest mirrored building, reflecting the magnificent scenery of the surrounding valleys and sand dunes during the day and the desert starry sky at night—breathtakingly beautiful. Jeddah: The "Maldives" on the Red Sea Jeddah is Saudi Arabia's coastal city, with coastal scenery comparable to the Maldives. The west coast of the city, near the Red Sea, is the perfect spot to watch the Red Sea sunset and the spectacular King Fahd's Fountain, one of the world's largest fountains. The Floating Mosque, built along the Red Sea, is extremely romantic with its pure white main structure and blue-green dome. Al-Balad, the historic district, is also not to be missed. The buildings here, mostly built in the early 16th-20th centuries, are constructed with coral stones from the Red Sea, and the doors and windows are painted in bright, vibrant colors, full of cultural charm. In addition to the beautiful scenery, Saudi Arabia's cuisine is also very distinctive😄. Shawarma, for example, is marinated meat wrapped in flatbread with fresh vegetables and special sauces, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Kabsa, the national dish, is a flavorful rice dish seasoned with spices and served with lamb, chicken, or fish, hearty and delicious. There are also snacks like falafel and hummus, which are also very good. In short, Saudi Arabia is a country with an air of mystery, with modern romance, historical civilization, wild deserts, and unique, naturally formed wonders—beautiful and full of treasures. If you want to experience extreme solitude and romance, you must visit Saudi Arabia🎉. Kingdom Centre: Located in the heart of Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, it is a landmark building and the largest and most important financial and economic center in Riyadh. Once the tallest building in the Middle East, it still holds the position of the second tallest building in the Middle East. The tower houses numerous offices, a five-star hotel, and 44 luxury suites. From the top of this tower, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Riyadh. (II) Old Royal Palace: Located in the Hanifa Valley, 16 km northwest of Riyadh. This was once the ancient capital of the former Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the birthplace of the Saudi family. Many mosques were built within the ancient capital, which was the base for Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab to spread Wahhabism. Currently, the only relatively well-preserved ruin of the ancient capital is this old royal palace, built with mud, stone, dried citrus, dried date palm leaves, and trunks. It is mainly composed of two- or three-story mud buildings, many of which have already collapsed. (III) Masmak Fortress: Located in the southern suburbs of Riyadh, 23 km from Riyadh Airport, it was built in 1865. In Arabic, it means "tall and thick building," which is the most appropriate name for this sturdy fortress. Its walls are very thick, a full 18 inches, and at each corner, there is a huge 18-meter-high watchtower, emphasizing its impregnability and stability. (IV) Taif: The summer capital of Saudi Arabia. Luxurious residences and villas have been built here. Taif preserves many ancient relics, including a castle built during the Ottoman Empire, a military fortress built during the Arabian Peninsula War, the Abdullah Al-Abbas Mosque, which was first built in the 6th-7th centuries, and King Faisal's palace, Shubra Palace. (V) Rub' al Khali: Meaning "Empty Quarter," it gets its name from covering about a quarter of the Arabian Peninsula and is one of the largest deserts in the world. (VI) Mecca: Located in the valley of the Ibrahim Wadi in the middle section of the Sarawat Mountains in western Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is located on the Arabian Peninsula in southwest Asia, and Mecca, the first holy city of Islam, is located in the valley of the Ibrahim Wadi in the middle section of the Sarawat Mountains in western Saudi Arabia. (VII) Hegra Archaeological Site (Mada'in Saleh): Formerly known as Hegra, it is the largest preserved site of the Nabataean civilization south of Petra, Jordan. (VIII) At-Turaif District in ad-Dir'iyah: The At-Turaif District in ad-Dir'iyah is the location of the first capital of the Saudi dynasty, located in central Arabia, northwest of Riyadh, and was first built in the 15th century. (IX) King Fahd's Fountain: The tallest fountain in the world. Built between 1980 and 1983 and put into use in 1985, King Fahd's Fountain is a very special fountain. It is not located in a palace or a square, but in the sea. (X) Floating Mosque: Located on the Corniche Road in Jeddah, the second largest city in Saudi Arabia, it is built on the edge of the Red Sea and supported by several thick cement pillars. From a distance, it looks like it is standing on the water, hence the name Floating Mosque. The mosque has a simple and elegant appearance, and the calm pool in front makes it truly beautiful, with its reflection in the water even more charming.

#getgoing2025 Al Rahmah Mosque A mosque floating on the sea in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. I visited this mosque when I was staying in Jeddah. I went there at sunset, so I could see the mystical and wonderful view. Although we could not go inside the mosque, we felt very happy just looking at the white chalk building like a work of art illuminated by the setting sun. I recommend this place to all visitors to Jeddah. 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: Al Rahmah Mosque 📍Address: J4X2+C9C, Ash Shati، طريق الكورنيش، حي الشاطئ، Saudi Arabia 💞Reasons to Recommend: Mystical view ⋆ ･⋆ ･⋆ ･⋆ ⁡ #trip #travel #traveling #jeddah #SaudiArabia #mosque #vacation

In Arabic, "Jeddah" means "grandmother," as if to tell the story of the city's ancient history and civilization. It is only a few dozen kilometers from Mecca, the birthplace of Islam, and across the Red Sea from Egypt. It is the second largest city in Saudi Arabia and an important port of entry and exit for pilgrims to Mecca and Medina.🚢 Because the Saudi king and other royal family members work or vacation in Jeddah every summer, it has earned the nickname "Summer Capital."🌞 Jeddah is located on the western coast, with a pleasant climate that is comfortable most of the year, although humidity drops slightly in winter. The best time to visit Jeddah is from December to April.✈️ Stroll along the beach, where sailboats sway in the wind⛵, and the mysterious and alluring mirage appears from time to time, making you intoxicated. 🗺️ Here are the main attractions in Jeddah: King Fahad Fountain: When the sun sets🌇 and the afterglow falls on the sea, the King Fahad Fountain shows its beauty at sunset. Walk along Falasteen Street Walk to the beach, the best place to see this beautiful view. The fountain is reflected in the golden sunlight, shimmering and beautiful. Al Balad: The whole old town is full of cinematic atmosphere🎬, as if time has stopped here. In the afternoon, the light is soft, and the temperature is relatively cool, making it perfect for taking pictures📷. Stroll through the streets of the old town and feel the history and culture. Alrahmah Mosque: The Alrahmah Mosque, also known as the "Floating Mosque,"🛕 is located on the Red Sea in Saudi Arabia. It is uniquely built on a pile of white concrete on the Red Sea and is the first mosque in the world to be built on water. For Muslims on their way to Mecca and Medina, Jeddah is often the starting point of their pilgrimage, and the "Floating Mosque" is a must-see on the pilgrimage route, carrying the faith and hope of countless people.🙏 Corniche Park: The entire waterfront area can be called Corniche Park. Here, you can enjoy the seaside scenery🌊. To the south, you can enjoy the beauty of the fountain, and to the north, you can see the big sign with "Jeddah" written on it, adding a unique mark to this beautiful beach.

There are many mosques in Jeddah, but this floating mosque is especially recommended for visiting in the evening or at night. The beautiful sunset and the illuminated scenery around the mosque are wonderful. In addition, the old town of Jeddah has retained its old houses and streetscapes, making it a place where you can learn about traditional and historical culture. Shops are only open in the morning or evening, so it may be best to avoid the hot daytime hours. Also, the main event of this trip was watching an international soccer match at King Abdullah Sports City. The enthusiasm and pressure of the Saudi Arabian supporters was overwhelming. They actively interacted with me, a supporter of the opposing team, during the match, at halftime, and after the match, and I could feel their friendly national character.
