I am happy to share with you this video produced by the US Consulate General of Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The under five minute video features clips from the city's recently held historical festival "Kunna Kida," which translates to "We were like this" in Arabic and captures the flavor of the festival. The festival was held in Al Balad, the oldest sector of the city, which began as a small fishing village more than 1400 years ago.
In this delightful video, Jeddawis are on hand to share information about their ancient city, their fascinating culture, and their lives here in Jeddah. Their spirit shines through and really gives the viewer a true impression of the pride and love these people have for their beloved city.
The narrative is all in Arabic, so for English subtitles, be sure to click on the "CC" option below the video in the lower right of the screen.
