Yemen
Located below Saudi Arabia at the very bottom of the Arabian Peninsula, the Republic of Yemen is one of the Arab world’s poorest countries, but rich in ways that defy the imagination. Sana’a, the capital of Yemen, is both the fastest growing and oldest city in the world. With awe-inspiring architecture, traditional Islamic culture, breathtaking vistas, and the most generous, friendliest people you will ever meet, Sana’a makes you feel like you’ve stepped back centuries in time. Described in the Bible as the land of milk and honey, the place where wise men gathered frankincense and myrrh, and where Sheba made her home, Yemen today remains one of the most magical, enchanting places on Earth. And contrary to the US State Department warnings, it is one of the safest and welcoming places you will ever visit.
