With all the amenities of a mega-city, Jeddah offers its visitors never-ending adventures, diverse experiences, and cuisines from around

the world. As a beachfront city, Jeddah has miles of tree-lined corniche, an aquarium with exotic aquatic life, the lighted King Fahd's Fountain, and the Al-Rahmah "floating" mosque.
