- How beautiful is the old port city of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia?! We were very fortunate to meet Hossni on our first day in Jeddah who offered to meet up with us and then took us to see the beautiful old town of Al Balad, Jeddah.
Thank you for your special hospitality, Hossni. And for showing us around Saudi Arabia!
Thanks for watching! :)

One of the things that may have not been mentioned is that “AlBalad”, is actually the original “Downtown”, of Jeddah and that it is one of the oldest downtowns in history among modern or other contemporary cities around the world … some people would think that places like Damascus or Cairo are older, but, the fact that the name of the city is Jeddah translated from Arabic means Grandmother, because the last resting place of Eve (Adam and Eve), is in Jeddah predating any and all other cities on Earth …
Thank you it’s a beautiful city.
Thank you it’s a beautiful city.
I heard about this story a lot, and that Adam landed in India and they met in Arafat, so it was called Arafat because they met and recognition each other
there.
arafat in arabic means (recognition)
true 👍👍👍👍

In the summer, Saudis go to cold cities such as: Taif, Al Baha, Baljurashi, Sabt Al Alaya, Al Namas, Tanomah, Abha, Bellahmar, Balsamer, Fifa Mountains.
Do not leave Saudi Arabia except by visiting archaeological sites, the most important of which are: Al-Ukhdood in Najran, Jubbah and Shuwaymis mountains, Maghaer Shuaib Cave, Musas Mountain, Diriyah, The Red Sea Islands in Umluj and Al-Wajh
Saudi Arabia is best visited with cultural festivals such as: Janadriyah Festival, Souk Okaz Festival, Taif Rose Festival, Olive Festival in Al-Jawf, Dates Festival in Qassim,Jasmine Festival in Jizan
etc..
THANK YOU for adding Al Ukhdood it's so underrated that it's upsetting to me! The site is FILLED with history!
جبال فيفا وين في اي مدينه
The boys are too kind and sweet may Allah Protect them and welcome to🇸🇦
Thank you very much :)
دندنا عذاري 🤣🤣🤣اكثر البائعين ليسو سعودين مقيمين ومرحبا بل جميع

Thank you for sharing this unique place. It seems like a chapter taken off a book of ancient Arabic tales❤️
that traditional coffee house, the ambience, that kid and the women selling ice lollies are straight off books I read as a kid. This part of the world is such an interesting place 😍 Safe travels to all of you ❤️
Thanks @Janice we really appreciate your kind feedback. And it is certainly a fascinating place to visit and learn about!
God bless Saudi Arabia. 🇸🇦
You are very welcome in Jeddah, my city. The city is witnessing a significant development in buildings and other things currently. I hope you will visit it in the winter. The weather will be very nice. ❤️
Thank we will definitely be back again. What an amazing country.
للأسف لا يوجد أهتمام في جده القديمه المكان شكله قذرررر جدا
Welcome to Jeddah, I'm glad you came to visit
الشيبان ذول وظيفتهم بس دقها ضومنه

Thanks very much! 🦖 😎
Your next stop should be the southern part of Saudi Arabia it’s more colder and heavy rain fall there’s a lot of forests ( cities you should visit are ( Abha, rijal almaa, al namas, )
Thank you 🙏 Saudi Arabia is such a beautiful country.
8:00 this is basically how ice cream used to be served traditionally, and it was home made. There would be someone in the neighborhood who specializes in making these and every kid in the block would come by the house to buy
For real those days were gone, still miss this kinda of iceberg and this kinda life joy upon joy honestly 😁
50% of the population of Jeddah is not Saudi, but African and Asian 🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦
I love the Hejazi song touch so neat 😍😍👌
Are you still in Jeddah?
I enjoy watching the journey and travels around the countries it's really amazing.
Thank you 😊
love from pakistan
We miss you Pakistan 🇵🇰
Our Prophet roamed these cities just like Christ in Jerusalem!

Oscar is so cute with his little camel
Beautiful, I enjoyed watching you and I have already subscribed and I am waiting for the next. I wish you a good time and do not forget this. You are welcome in Saudi Arabia at any time, and it is your second country. Believe me, we are a people who love guests very much, and each of us will give everything he has for his guest. I know this well.
Thank you so much!
I guess you're not going to Riyadh, if so pleaase visit Boulevard City there, king Abdullah financial district and stop by the popular coffee shop, I'm sure you will be surprised by how different everything is there
Ma sha'Allah, what a great, beautiful family. Thank you for visiting the Arab and Muslim countries, you are so very welcome indeed ❤️ 😊.

ام عذاري جلطتني

Come visit the South of Saudi Arabia where is the good weather. There are good places like Abha city, Rijal Almaa and An-Nimas Rijal Almaa has the heritage village. From there you can go forther toward the south to the city of Jazan. Where you will find variety of delicious food such as Marsa (brown bread chopped with banana and both local honey and ghee), fish magsh ( local fish cooked in saucepan made of stone)...etc. moreover there are good places in Jazan like Wadi Lajab ( similar to wadi dissa), Fayfa ( a town build in the top of the high mountain), further more, you can go to Farasan Island. I hope this was a good guiding for you and have fun.
I advice you to go to Abha it is really amazing and the weather is actually cold 😂😂👍🏻.
Really beautiful balad
It really is!
Welcome to Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 nice family ❤️
Always beautiful moments, love this channel
Thank you so much we appreciate your message. We try to do justice to the places we visit through our videos 😊
نورتو جده😍

Hey guys, good to see you are all enjoying your travel. Do you know the meaning of Jeddah ? It means “The mother of all the human lies here”. Jeddah is where Eve’s grave. Adam and Eve. ❤️🇧🇩🇺🇸
Wow!
That’s true info, & the cemetery in which is the grave of our mother Eve is called “Eve’s Cemetery.” In jeddah ♥️🇸🇦
You have to visit the Jeddah Waterfront Have a nice time ❤️❤️
Welcome to my homeland 💗
اهلاً . . وسهلاً❤️
1. is this the right time / season to visit Saudi Arabia or the ME in general, since it's so hot there at this time of the year?
2. _When_ and _if_ you are going to visit Egypt, Turkey, Iran and Jordan? I've been to Egypt a long time ago and travelled inside the country extensively for 3 months during Pharaoh Mubarak's reign. My experience was good on the whole with good memories, but I hear from others (some, not all) a somewhat different story nowadays. I would love to see it again through your eyes. I wonder if it's still the same or changed... 😀 Also, Iran and Turkey seems interesting. I hope to visit one or both of these countries sometime next year when the weather is cooler... I simply can't stand high temperature!
If you want to come to Saudi Arabia come in winter now it’s hot
@@hash9065 i surmised pretty much the same and was wondering why the Steiners are doing this at this time. Very hot places take the fun out of travelling - in my view. If you are forced to stay inside air-conditioned hotels, malls, cars, etc most of the time then there is no point in travelling there for fun.
@@GUULLIVER South of Saudi arabia is pretty cool .. like Abha , Alsamal, alsoda mountain
Haha yes it is very hot! But we truly feel grateful to have the chance to visit at any time :) We have spent a couple of weeks up in the hills of Saudi Arabia and they are beautifully cool at this time of year. It is an amazing country to explore!
@@GUULLIVER I have seen many travelers. There is no depth in explaining Islamic culture and Arab customs in Saudi Arabia. As for visiting in the summer, Saudis go to spend time in natural cities, which have beautiful weather in summer, such as Taif, Abha, Fifa Mountains, Al Baha and Al Namas.
Saudi Arabia has a lot of mountainous, coastal and desert terrain..and it can be visited in all seasons because the temperatures are different between desert cities and mountain cities..but it is better to choose what you want from the visit, do you want nature, culture, archaeological sites, etc..
The most important thing is to ask the people of cities about what are the most beautiful places. As a Saudi, there are many nearby Saudi cities. I do not know the most beautiful places except by searching for city-specific sites on Instagram and Twitter as evidence.
To enjoy the experience of visiting Saudi Arabia, try to visit it with the dates of cultural, tourism, shopping, agricultural and sports festivals. Each region has its own characteristics.
I am in Jeddah and never visited this place but after the video i will go there , thx 🙏
Welcome to Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦❤️
Nice to see your family enjoying the arab culture. The arabs are the most hospitable people you can come across. All the best.
Thank you!
٩:٤٠ الجداوي يصب باليمين و اخذ فنجاله و خلا فناجيلهم 😂😂

There is a traditional fish restaurant in Jeddah albalad they call it ( Baeshen fish restaurant) most trying 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Ooo sounds very good!
You should go Japan it's really amazing 😍❤️🤗
We have been Japan 🇯🇵 we loved it. In fact it’s still one of our favourite countries. 😊
@@gavinsteiner3759 Have you made video of Japan?
Asia in general are amazing, they have lot of interesting places compared to Boring US (My Country) & Typical Europe, i also Recommend South America
اللہُ اکبر 🇸🇦🇵🇰🏳️😍
The journey does not end until you go to Taif and then to Abha from the mountain road, do not go from the coastal road, there are sandstorms💚💚💚
Ooo good point! Thank you we have really loved exploring the mountain area of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
nice to have you in saudi arabia, this is old traditional area i hope you enjoy it, and i hope you visit more modern places and share them on your channel, so the world will see we dont live in tents like they think 🤣.
We will!
God bless you all. You are great explorers. I wish you happiness and success
Amazing, i suggest to make the vlogs 15 min or 18 min 👍😉
Ok thanks!
Your content is amazing in enjoying the holidays which makes me love watching this content. In the future, you create content for your vacation to Indonesia, namely to the beautiful beaches of Bali, the largest Hindu temple in Bali which is located on the island of Bali, the history of the palace on the island of Java belonging to Sultan Hamengkubuwono in Yogyakarta, the Malioboro market in Yogyakarta, playing off-road cars. on the slopes. Mount Merapi in Yogyakarta, Borobudur Temple in Magelang, the Museum of the History of the Battle of Surabaya in 1945 in the city of Surabaya which is known as an icon of the people of Surabaya, and the Monas Statue which is an icon of the historical statue of the proclamation of Indonesian independence in 1945 in the city of Jakarta and many other historical relics in Indonesia.

You need to visit riyadh,Would you?
And it is a great video 🤍
Thank you! And yes we had a great time in Riyadh and loved learning about the old city there too :)
They actually visited Riyadh, someday i wanna go there myelf haha :)
Loved how intense and serious the elderly men playing Dominoes! and btw the ice pops are called among Saudi's as the "old days Ice cream" as it was famous i think back in the 70s or 80s for being easily made at home and you can enjoy it and cool down after school!
How interesting! Thank you 😊
I love jeeddh ♥️
Welcome to Saudi Arabia and i wish you a joyful & safe trip around the Kingdom. I enjoyed your videos and I subscribed to your channel 👍
Thank you very much 😊
Why don't you visit mosques and learn about Islamic culture?
There is a tourist organization that receives discovered travelers and important personalities to receive them in mosques
I think that the King Fahd Mosque is one of the most prominent mosques in Jeddah
We have visited many mosques, and loved it every time😊
@@gavinsteiner3759 The goal, my little brother, is to know why we pray the five daily prayers, why we fast, why we perform Hajj, what does Jesus pbuh mean to Muslims and why we love him, what are the five pillars of Islam and what are the six pillars of faith and what is al'iihsan, why are Christians the closest religion to Muslims etc.. From the mosque and you have information about Islam that you can discuss with anyone about it
beautiful family
your 2 daughters must really enjoyed the places you visited!
Btw, Steiners…your blog theme music takes me back to the 80’s tv series. Love it. 😀❤️🇧🇩🇺🇸
😁 Hehe excellent! We have a new intro video coming out soon (with lots of Bangla clips!) but keeping the same music 🥰
Yes, keep the theme. Love it. ❤️🇧🇩🇺🇸
welcome to Jeddah
i wish i was there helping you with the translation
enjoy your trip in SA
Amazing historical places thanks for sharing us your nice trip best wishes for your next destination
Thank you! You too!
Plz tell me your children don't go to school they are making log and long long journey with parents
After it you must visit 🇮🇷
اللي تقول دندنه دندنه 😭😭
اي ههههههه
Your reports are nice but short🙄
Thank you! (And yikes haven’t got very long ones as travelling with the kids!). But thank you for watching ☺️
Red ice cream seems to me from what children say it is better than Baskin Robbins😂😂
What makes Jeddah so special is the cultural and ethical diversity. The pilgrimage who came to the peninsula and stayed brought their culture and traditions with them. So Jeddah is a melting pot of literally everything.
We really enjoyed seeing and learning about that diversity. Very interesting.
@Stadler Huyna Who told you that?
@Stadler Huyna We have more Christians in Jeddah than Muslims in most of America’s state and european cities. And I don’t get your point why it’s a problem that all of them are Muslims?
I wish if you guys walked further inside and reached Nassif house, it’s the finest old building in the site, if you consider revisiting this place, consider walking across Nassif house, it’s well-known building in the area
Welcome to your second country🇸🇦. I apologize for the bad reception💔. We look forward to your return again. Thank you. I wish you a wonderful and happy trip.❤️
There are many many touristic places in jeddah I hope you guys had visit it before you leaved I’m waiting for your videos ❤️

they'd take down the flag when the weather gets windy, also that ice cream was around since maybe the 80s
Haha truly! Great ice cream. (And also very interesting about the flag!).

The fountain was established during the reign of the late King Fahd Bin Abdelaziz … it’s used, along with the flag on the flagpole, the same way displaying the Union Jack on top of Buckingham Palace and other residences of British Sovereignty to indicate weather He/She is currently in residence and that is the real they are made to be so tall …
Wow! Very interesting.
What does dandan mean
No one made you cover up?
