Start the day off with a visit to Jeddah’s historical downtown area Al-Balad which is the historical area well known as the "Old Town", where many of the oldest families used to live and work. It boasts of old buildings, a traditional souk and many restaurants. While visiting Al-Balad, you will be taken to see Beit Nassif, one of the prominent structures in the old city dating back to the mid 1800's. The five-story building provides a rare opportunity for the visitors to experience the blend of traditional architecture with modernity.

Thereafter, visit one of the most famous ancient museums of Jeddah, Abdul Raouf Khalil Museum that showcases 2,500-year-old history of the city. Displaying the history of the pre-Islamic era, pre-modern civilisations, and the rich Islamic cultural heritage, it exhibits ancient archaeological collections related to Saudi heritage and Ottoman Empire.
