hey everyone welcome to another video it's me solo welcome to another travel solo log
so i'm currently in saudi arabia i just got back to saudi arabia and i'm in jeddah so i'm back
in jeddah and I want to show you a beautiful area of Jeddah which i haven't shown you yet
this is the seaside of Jeddah show you around it's called the corniche in arabic so Jeddah is a seaside
city here in saudi arabia it's actually one of the biggest cities in saudi arabia so i was like since
i'm here i want to show you around the seaside area it's very popular especially during the
evening at night time when it cools down so that being said let's go around this area and explore
as you can see a lot of people here having a good time ah the sun just uh fortunately i didn't
show you the sunset the sunset was right over here it was beautiful
but it's okay i got stopped by some person because they're curious about why i was recording
you could see most people like the women here are wearing black and the men wear white
traditional and then you can see on the guy's head that's like the traditional
headscarf you could say for the guys i got what it's called in arabic
on top of my mind but uh it's famous over here many people wear it
so beautiful over here and it's cool right now right now we're in march of 2022 so it's
actually march 1st today so hopefully march will be a good month for me and for you guys
so yeah so we're gonna get off this little pathway over here and then there's like a
little sandy beach area where i can show you and then we'll just walk around and whatever
i see nice of course i'm gonna show you guys but that being said i don't know if you guys
could hear from the distance there's a athen playing which is the call of prayer
because they have five daily prayers and this is the prayer just after the sunset
or during the sunset it's called maghrib so that being said guys i'm gonna stop the video for
just a second just because i'm hearing that athen out of respect and then i'll continue the video
all right so the athen just finished so let's continue the video so as we're about to walk
on like the main walkway over here i just want to show you real quick how like crystal clear
the water is you see the water transparent and sometimes you actually see fish that are
swimming i don't know if we could see any right now unfortunately but we see some i'll show you
and by the way this like seafront area goes
for miles or kilometers depending on how you measure distance so it's definitely a big area
to explore probably can't show you all of it in this video but i can show you some nice things
beautiful palm trees it's kind of windy right now
so this is the walkway path over here so we're gonna go a little bit on the sandy area
and then we're going to walk maybe to our right there's a lot of like food booths so i could show
you like kind of like where people get food from over here and also there's like a little
uh theme park over here too so we'll explore that area so first let's go to the sandy area
and let me know guys like is this how you expect saudi arabia to be oh and uh right now uh people
are praying they could pray in the mosque but if they're with their family or
they just want to like find a better place for convenience to pray you could pray over here
because that just happened so right now they're praying salat maghrib which
is the fourth prayer of the day it's beautiful you see they give prayer mats to people usually
my shoes are going to get a little bit sandy but it's okay
i don't feel like taking it off and putting it back on
so usually families over here will like bring coffee or tea or bring some like
little snacks and eat chill here bring their own mats as you can see it's lovely
those guys over there are praying try not to get too close
so you can see over there that little area that little walkway
area is where i started the video right over there
nice
and then you can see over here i don't know if you can see that gigantic building over
there right next to the tower crane because this area of jeddah where actually the the whole city
is going through a whole like renovation honestly there's a lot of areas of the where like
they demolish a lot of buildings you can find a lot of tower cranes here so it's a developing area
developing city i should say a developing area in saudi arabia
but also a city it's nice you can see it's pretty much clean the sand it's not like dirty
people usually throw things in the trash which they have multiple trash cans over here
cool because some beaches i've been to in like other countries could get quite dirty
so here's a little beach area now let's go explore another area
okay i was about to cross the street i want to show you
this truck over here it's a mobile blood donation truck so it's
it's nice it's from the government so if somebody wants to donate blood you can overhear too
this is where we at right now el siyad plaza
let's see this is the whole area we're at the middle pathway is the bike path we're about to go
and then uh i guess this might be the theme park okay let's cross the street
well just across from us is a really tiny mcdonald's i
think the smallest mcdonald's i've ever seen okay
see how am i gonna cross oh okay thank you
so we're at right now is the middle of a bike path
and let me just show you like if you'd want to rent a bike this is like some of them how it
would look like but let me just show you the prices so if you ever do come together come
to the corniche seaside area and you can ride the bike i'm not sure if you can ride the bike
like over there but i know this is a large like bike path that's you could write hello
so let me just show you what kind of stuff you guys can rent real quick so if you want to rent so
these prices are for half an hour an hour and i'll put the price like real to usd so basically this
is what you could rent mostly it's for kids but you see the bottom you can rent a normal bicycle or
another bicycle like the tricycle we saw over there but you could see like for example for a
bicycle to run for one hour it's 50 uh 50 riyals and for half an hour it's 30 riyals not bad i
would say dirhams but we're not in uh so we're not in dubai anymore this is all the bicycles
all the different types
see a wide variety of bikes sit down
oh there's even another bike rental place too but i think it's the same price
yeah at the same price sit down
and this is a bike path also this path you could walk on it too i'm gonna cross the street
and show you these small little kiosk things which i've never seen in a place yet like there's
like i'd say like 20 like different varieties of it but what's interesting in this area is they
have a small mcdonald's it has to be the smallest mcdonald's i've ever seen so check it out so then
princess coffee it's so these little kiosks mostly uh people will drive up
to it and there's like little drive-through places i'll show you the little tiny mcdonald's
you see all of them are pretty small
so it's nice uh you grab a cup of coffee or some tea or like some snack and then go over there
and see the beautiful sea and the sea over there is called the red sea
check out this tiny mcdonald's smallest mcdonald's i've seen in my life there's the back of it and
there's like just a little box i'll show you what's on the mcdonald's menu over here
big tasty this is what they have on the saudi menu for mcdonald's sit down let's see nice okay
so this is mcdonald's
damn that is so tiny okay let's go inside through here
i'll show you the variety of stuff mostly it's coffee places there's two more ends oh
oh i see a burger king over there so you could see saudi arabia does have like a wide variety
actually of western food that's something you may not know also they have a lot of
middle eastern food too don't be wrong but i'll show you some like a pizza margarita 25 riyals
chicken sandwich is how much was chicken salad zinger meal 25 riyals i'll put some of these prices
in usd just to let you know because the exchange rate for like one dollar to saudi riyals is like 3.75
okay cool let's get close to the theme park so i'm gonna get close to the theme park and see how much
is entry because i might make another video of the theme park if you want to see it just let me know
there's like one of the roller coasters over there
okay so that was the front entrance i just asked the guy how much it is he said basically
entry fee is 35 riyals and then there's 85 real 35 riyas will get you into the park but if you
want to play the games and stuff and have like unlimited access to like all the games they have
it was like go with 85 riyals one real ticket and then you can see it says open from 5 p.m daily
so actually opens at night time because you know we're injured and sometimes it gets very
hot and this is the place called happy land park it's also a great thing to do if you're
with your family and want to go to jeddah go to happy land park and hopefully have a happy time
oh wow look at this colorful pathway so just before we go to back to the
seaside front over there on the right i just want to show you this so this is the area where you
could ride your bikes and also if you want to jog like this person you can jog buy your bikes
