  • Karantina is not only one of the oldest neighborhood of Jeddah, but also the OLDEST black neighborhood in Jeddah maybe the entire Saudi Arabia.
    It is located south of downtown Jeddah near the old Jeddah port, as known today by Saudi RAMCO Port. This is where African pilgrims created their first neighborhood, because of its proximity from Jeddah port when they first put food on then Hijaz soil. It's here where they planned they trips to the two holiest cities Mecca and Madinah.

    Amazing video! I'm Saudi, living in Jeddah, and I found this video incredibly informative! I shared it on Facebook, and with a few of my western friends too. I wish they weren't so afraid to be filmed, but some of them were eager to engage with you! Made for heartwarming interactions. I lived in Cameroon, Kenya and Ethiopia for a combination of 12 years! The most crucial part of my formative upbringing was in the motherland. I've also visited Nigeria, Chad, Djibouti, Seychelles, Mauritius, Ghana and Sudan! I'd love to go back someday and see more of Africa 💘
