Introducing Al-Hudayda
With its wide and clean streets, parks full of shady, snooze-enticing benches and pleasant pavement cafés, Al-Hudayda, capital of Tihama, is probably Yemen’s most European-flavoured city and is an enjoyable place to rest up for half a day or so. However, its often-touted description of being the ‘bride of the Red Sea’ is a little over optimistic and probably says more about the state of someone’s wife than the beauty of the town.
