I’m American but was born and raised in Jeddah and I consider that place my home, my parents understand why but can’t say the like it. I loved growing up there in the 80s. It’s modernised a lot from your video but my favorite thing to do was going 30 minutes outside of the city going to any beach and having the place to yourself for the weekend. I hope to take my daughters some day so they can see it.
It is wonderful to hear such positive feedback from a Saudi living abroad! There will be more Jeddah videos, then Medina; Al Ahsa and Dammam/Al Khobar, and we hope you enjoy them 😁😊 Thank you so much for your kind comment - we really appreciate you taking the time to write 😃😊🙏 ~ Mandy
I’m originally from Saudi but we live in Cardiff .. That bench is a prayer mat they pull it out during prayer time and a lot of people gather to pray together and they use handle to roll it back after finishing prayer.. hope you enjoy your visit in Saudi, also Id recommend to get a small rental car to get you around or visiting another cities around £25 per day .. if you need any help with any informations hit me up
We love Wales but have never been to Cardiff or Swansea! We saw the roll out prayer mats in use in Medina... they are so cool! Thank you for your great comment and suggestions. We prefer taking buses and trains, rather than planes or rental cars, when travelling... a) to stay within our US$25 budget each per day, and b) as we both like seeing the landscape out the window 😃😁There'll be more videos to come from Jeddah; Medina; Al Ahsa and Dammam/Al Khobar, and we hope you enjoy them 😀 ~ Mandy

So kind of you guys. Highly appreciated such a wonderful behaviour. I will share my friend from France to motivate him to go and look around Holy cities Makkah and Madina. Stay blessed, May Allah bless you guys with wisdom and turn you to accept Islam. Aamen
I have travelled to so many countries from the UK (where I live) mainly to Asia, Mediterranean countries and Indian Ocean Islands (Maldives, Seychelles, Mauritius) and being a Muslim I have visited Saudi Arabia 5 times for Hajj and Umrah visiting Makkah and Madinah - however on one of my Umrah trips we did stay in Jeddah for a few days and loved the city
How wonderful you've seen so many awesome places. 😍 After our Jeddah videos we'll show the incredible experience we had in Medinah meeting all the Umrah pilgrims there. What an amazing place! 👍

Jeddah has a Humid climate most of the year. The carpet boxes you saw on the sea coast is tall for prayer in group 🙂, because there aren't a mosque nearby.
Thank you Khaled. 🙏. We guessed that they would be for praying. We saw many people stop to pray during their time there. We wish you all the best for your journey to Saudi Arabia and your time there. 🙏
Ahhh-the sea! The open sea, ocean or large lake just makes me feel better! 👍🏻 Jeddah looks like has many newly built and attractive facilities along the corniche.

IBFAN also alleges that Nestlé uses "humanitarian aid" to create markets, does not label its products in a language appropriate to the countries where they are sold, and offers gifts and sponsorship to influence health workers to promote its products.[25] The company not only made use of mass media promotion (e.g. billboards and posters) and sample distributions, they also had sales people dressed as so-called “milk nurses” to visit mothers in hospital and at their home to praise formula and its benefits.[26][27][10]

Late January. We are running behind with so many more Saudi videos to come. 😁. The weather then was quite pleasant. Sometimes even cool in the evening.
Nice vlog, hope you had a nice stay there, just a couple of comments, the aquarium isn’t a family-only, I’m single and entered it, what they targeting by 2030 isn’t a 100 million tourists, their target officially is a 100 million visits, so if you are let's say a Kuwaiti citizen and entered Saudi (Kuwaitis and the citizens of the GCC countries can enter Saudi without even having a passport) and spent one day in Riyadh and spent the next day in Jeddah, this counts two visits, actually the visits are counted even if the visit isn’t for tourism, and by this meaning they already scoring more than a 70 million visits annually, Mecca alone can secure 30% of their target easily
Wow, thanks so much for this interesting information, Abdul. We had no idea that they calculate it this way. I'm sure tourism will grow more and more here as many people will want to come and experience this fascinating culture. So many interesting places to discover here. 👍😊 ~ Lee
Bismillah means a start or a beginning of an action to help through allah, the term is bit loose but means will & strength. Lord give me will & strength to carry on etc, it is more of an asking kind for Allahs guidance, but nowadays loosely used to start a meal and we end with Al-Humdulillah, please forgive my rough translation. But one thing worries me about Saudi Arabia with there ambitions goals to bring tourists is the must rapidly grow domestically by building western attractions in Saudi Arabia.

@05013579 Thank you.

Thank you for not taking our comments personally. We knew we might offend some people but we wanted to give our honest opinion. ~ 😁😊 Mandy
Jeddah has more than 50 km along the sea. Some places are private, resorts, houses, and cornich. Some places are really beautiful specially the resorts and some are not very well maintained. Most popular places on cornich are the floating mosque and fountain.
@Drift240sxSAT Thank you for the great information! We were on foot so couldn't see much of the 50km of coastline, and unfortunately missed out on the Floating Mosque and fountain for an excellent reason which you'll see in an upcoming video 😃😁 ~ Mandy

Sorry to say the video didn’t do Jeddah ‘s corniche any justice ..
I know! We were so looking forward to seeing the Corniche... it was at the top of my list of places to see in KSA, and the reality was very different from what I'd expected! Wait until the next videos to see why we ended up such an awesome time in Jeddah! ~ Mandy
He gave his own experience, not every video has be an advertisement to Jeddah, the city has it's faults also it's not always fun
@05013579 Thank you. We always try to see the positives in a place, as everywhere has pros and cons... it was just a bit difficult to enjoy the Jeddah Corniche when we were there in January, and it made the Corniche in Al Khobar seem amazing!
Thank you for not taking our comments personally. We knew we might offend some people but we wanted to give our honest opinion. ~ 😁😊 Mandy
Jeddah has more than 50 km along the sea. Some places are private, resorts, houses, and cornich. Some places are really beautiful specially the resorts and some are not very well maintained. Most popular places on cornich are the floating mosque and fountain.
@Drift240sxSAT Thank you for the great information! We were on foot so couldn't see much of the 50km of coastline, and unfortunately missed out on the Floating Mosque and fountain for an excellent reason which you'll see in an upcoming video 😃😁 ~ Mandy
Went to Jeddah eating Indian food. 😂😂
And Al Baikh, remember 😁🤣
Jeddah is kinda outdated you should’ve visited Al ULA.
So many people told us that we should visit Al Ula, but we ran out of time. It's definitely on our list of places to visit when we return to Saudi Arabia 😃😁
الصبات تعكس حضارة المملكه 😂
