EDITORS COMMENTS
This postcard image showcases the old city of Sanaa, Yemen, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its distinctive visual character and unique architectural characteristics. Dating back to the 11th century, Sanaa's multi-story buildings are a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this ancient city. The high-rise towers and blocks of houses, as depicted in this photograph taken circa 1910s, are adorned with intricate geometric patterns that add to their visual appeal. These patterns, which have been passed down through generations, are a key feature of Sanaani architecture and contribute to the city's unique charm. The temeni, or traditional Yemeni balconies, add an additional layer of visual interest to the buildings, making them a must-see attraction for visitors to this historic capital city. The Old City of Sanaa is a living museum, offering a glimpse into the past while providing a vibrant and bustling present-day experience. This postcard image serves as a reminder of the beauty and importance of preserving the world's cultural and architectural heritage for future generations to appreciate.
