11 More Pictures of the Al Tayibat City Museum in Jeddah

In Part 1 of this series, I introduced you to the Al Tayibat City Museum and explained its significance to the city of Jeddah and the broader Middle East. I also showed you 11 pictures that I took, which I hope gave you a good idea of what the place is like.

For me, those 11 pictures weren't enough to do this place justice. So here are 11 more that I took for you, with a focus on the traditional Hijazi architecture that Jeddah is famous for.

If you live in Jeddah and are knowledgeable about the Al Tayibat City Museum, please share what you know in the comments section below. We would love to hear about it!

Enjoy!
