When I asked him why he said: "Let the bodies concerned to answer that."
Asked why the lack of tourists visiting the island said: a slump in tourism in recent years, and I said visitors due to lack of coordination involved, if they did not coordinate and will collapse resulting tourism and investment in a year.

As is the way of vessels invading the island of Kamran first leg of the reign of the Ethiopian, and then successively attention, and until the late sixties, the island was considered quarantine only in the region for all the ships of the pilgrims that go to Saudi Arabia, as well as being the first place for marketing the Pearl in the Middle East , where marketers pearls come from the Gulf states; to Isoqgua their wares on the island, Add to that the historical significance of the island that no one can be ignored from a strategic point; because it controls the most important waterways, is the largest island in terms of population.
Island "Qumran"
On the morning of the second day of our visit to the island, we went on board the boat to a protected Shura North, before we got to the reserve about a quarter of an hour we saw in the midst of the sea a straight line of water is different from the color of the color of seawater, so I asked the driver of the boat for what we saw and said: "This place is the reason for naming the island as the "Qumran."
Described to me the place, "if you stood in the middle of the night you see the moon from both sides, ie, if left to the right see the moon midst of the sea, and if left to the left see the moon as well, and for this reason named the island as" the island of Qumran, "but after that the solution British on the island were Intqunha "Kamran", instead of "Qumran" became known as "Kamran" since then.
Environmental disaster
Threaten the marine waters of Yemen environmental disaster in the extinction of marine life, mainly fisheries.
Mohammed Zubairy confirms that the fishermen on the island, they began to be adversely affected by the source of their livelihood; because of large fishing boats that come from neighboring countries such as Egypt, for example, come in and washing away everything in its path from the fish.
The Zubairy the Egyptians are the first entrance to the fishing companies arrogant and reckless in the hunt all the fish big and small, and asserts that there are hands in the country to cooperate with these companies, and help them to destroy the marine environment, and in several cases that came to the courts, but marginalized by the judiciary.
The Ahmed Bakiri, Veshkoa low control marine and allow companies to Egyptian fishing action bombs into the sea, some of which are the cliff-like Bmahrtp farms that sweep everything and everybody, this has the shelf to the extinction of some fish and disappear completely so that the fisherman, a Yemeni who hunt the traditional way he gets Day 150 to 200 kg, they now only receive 15 to 20 kilometers, or interest is to become fishermen Egyptians and influential Yemenis.
Education
Island schools suffer from the lack of a teacher of physics and biology, and in this regard, said Othman, who said earlier that education is moving in the island a good degree, however, there are disadvantages, such as students from dropping out because of difficult living conditions. He noted that the literacy rate in the island up to about 70 percent, and most of the teachers of the children of the island, there are also a private elementary school for girls only (from first grade to sixth grade), a teacher, "Hope."
It emphasizes "that the island faces the problem of availability of some scientific disciplines, such as physics, biology, and therefore the lack of teachers, nor do we have any training institutes, whether professional or other, but after high school, who wants to continue to go to other provinces, and we are working to assist the work of the Note to cooperate with him in any university. "
But unfortunately, Paris is Kamran after the departure of the British neglected, there is no longer interested in them, I said where trees and vegetation, but the water continued, he drank on the people of the island until he came to dam construction project on the island, and did not find an appropriate place from the Paris region, Kamran, and costing an nearly 180 million riyals, but unfortunately there was not the engineer who planned appropriately, Vtm dam in place and there are wells and streams of water that the island was depending on them for drinking, and having completed construction of the dam, unfortunately, came up a failure, since it does not save a drop of water, and one which, according to an example: "claimed Iekhalha Amaha", and today accommodation for livestock.
Accommodation for the ghost
Displacement process will continue day after day because of the tragic situation faced by the island.
Hotel manager Mohammad Kamran Zubairy indicates that the issue of displacement has a long time and partially due to the lack of basic services to the life and stability in the island. He adds that the number of inhabitants of the island was under British about 15 thousand people, but after the departure of the British retreated to about 2000 people, only.
Airport Kamran
Kamran Island was under British colonial rule, and was also due to the rule of South Yemen, the work of the British building of an airport on the island to be used during World War II.
As the planes were taking off from Kamran to Britain and to Jeddah and all the neighboring countries, as "Djibouti, Cairo and Asmara, and others, and vice versa, as well as a station transit for aircraft refueling, etc., but following the expulsion of the British colonial neglected even destroyed and ends - as the chairman of the Committee Social Affairs Skulai acceptable.

Absence of investment
There is a single investor on the island, as Mohammed Zubairy, hotel manager, "Kamran", we asked him about the reason for the absence of investment, he pointed out that he is serving its twelfth year since opening the hotel.
He said that despite facing all this time a very large problems, including: lack of coordination among the relevant actors in dealing with licenses granted to him.
He continued: If the country needs to boost investment or support of investors, it must have the infrastructure and coordination among stakeholders in order not to introduce investors in trouble with the visitors and tourists, "My problem is I am a single investor, and investors fled whenever he came." When I asked him why he said: "Let the bodies concerned to answer that."
Asked why the lack of tourists visiting the island said: a slump in tourism in recent years, and I said visitors due to lack of coordination involved, if they did not coordinate and will collapse resulting tourism and investment in a year.

The bridge tender his adopted almost a million rials; to fix, but unfortunately has been done in the manner prescribed that do not cost fifty thousand riyals only.

Contractor will take the bridge tender and paid to the Office of the engineering work for the study, and established a bridge the way, we have outlined previously.

Sana Malika time and Rob Sufism..
Sana'a is located between two mountains, as well as the great mountain "we do" from the Middle and Mount "disadvantages" of the West and rising from the sea at about 7544 feet .. And it is very cold in the winter mild summer and is surrounded by S. War is a great foundation in the sixth century AH and has ten chapters had disappeared a day with only one door, which is called Bab al-Yemen, and so named because incidence south of the city have been renovated this section several times to the remaining part of the fence 'in which there are the highest mountain in the Arabian Peninsula is Mount Prophet Shuaib, which towers 3766 meters above sea level ... One of the cities Sabean repeatedly mentioned in the inscriptions as one of the important sites of the Queen of Sheba in the pre-birth 'and where conflicting information about the history of the establishment of Sanaa's Old City, for the first time' but most of the news sources and historical accounts confirm that the history of this city back to pre-date 'as the first city built after the flood' and who built it is Sam son of Noah, peace be upon him 'therefore called City (Sam)' For the inscriptions Sabean, the earliest mention of a city (Sanaa) in these inscriptions dating back to the (doomed is bin crap il water Ihnam) King Sheba, Dhi Raydan who lived in the first century AD The inscription and the city (people), which today is h j of the city and it is the northern gate of Old Sana'a called (the door of people).
Also carried Old Sanaa after the name of the city (still) in relation to one of the kings (SABA) 'which is Azal Ben lived bin aromas bin Amer bin Shalikh grandson of Sam son of Noah who was named as well as in the language of Yemen old and mean power and strength and it is derived, as some sources say Name of the King السبئي (Iozl between) who lived in the third century AD has been received Name (Azal) in the Torah also 'Then came the name (Sana) then considered synonymous with the name (still) and derives its name Sanaa making sense of a fortress and (Prevention) which is in line in meaning with (still).
As it is said, called the "Sanaa" for the quality of workmanship and a reputation for some of the manufacturers s copper, silver, and the other 'In another account that Sana was taken from the word "manufactured", which appeared in four inscriptions from the group patterns combined with the King "to explain Ihsb" There are those who say that Sana'a is the language of Some tribes Khawlan as stated in the "Dictionary of countries" and in 525 AD conquered by the Ethiopians found it built of stone fortress and they said this "manufacture" means the bunker became known as "Sana" 'as they are known for thousands of years copper industry and alloys different embroidery industry-Janabi "daggers."
According to researcher and investigator Yemeni Dr. Yousef Mohammad, Abdullah said the name of Sana in the inscriptions is (dropped out / Snao) and dropped out of the language of the people of Yemen is the old city .. He pointed out that Sana said after the inscription of the reign of King السبئي Dhamar Ali about a year (90 AD) and Another inscription from the reigns of two kings (o back pride, then quickly passed Tdm Ihhamd) and the reign of King (gave no possession) and from each of these families Spiip different and ruled Yemen in the period (100-120 AD) .. and thus the opinion of Dr. Yusuf Mohammed Abdullah, it is possible to say that the city of Sana'a have known by this name in the birth of Christ, peace be upon him, probably not.
There are those who tell that (Sanaa) is the language of some tribes (Khawlan), as stated in the book (dictionary countries) and Khawlan of the most famous tribes of Yemen and currently living in areas south and southeast of the capital of Yemen.
Historians say that Sana'a through phases many historical pre-Islam which the occupying Ethiopian Yemen At that period the Sana most important phase of a provision that "Abraha", which as the capital and built a church "Kulais" and adorned with marble and mosaics, and wanted to transfer the Kaaba bright to Sanaa Hajj to the Arabs.
The "is the administration," the last king of the State Himyarite been taken by the capital of his kingdom in the early sixth century AD, and also make the Ethiopians who invaded Yemen and ruled from 525 AD to 575 AD.
As indicated in the sources of information have been Sana of the invasion about 20 times between 901-913 AD He spoke of many historians, the first from Sanaa and tell Vzla "Abu Ali ibn dozen" d. 300 AH in his book Aloalaq psychological, "he said .. is the city of Yemen, not Yemen, in Pthamp not the greatest city in the Hijaz, including no more Welcome to the good nor supervised originally best food in them.
Authenticity and nobility:
Sanaa and the day consisted of two parts ancient and modern, they are often interrelated and are connected to each other .. The fact that some neighborhoods containing houses of old and new at once and in particular those living in the center of the city and what can be said that the buildings and houses have been established through decades of this century have served to separate the various districts of Old Sana'a from each other .. Still, much of the Old Sana'a full of heritage and its people and character of the old .. Which is the eastern and south-east of the historic city of Surat, which is still the other stands today has seen this part of the restoration and maintenance of several periods, either other parts of the remaining buildings and homes became scattered in a number of areas in the center of Sanaa, which is a combination of ancient and modern ..
Overall, Sana still retains its authenticity and originality, heritage and art Architectural Excellence known as engineered islands Alhaddaiekaya for thousands of years and which reflect the splendor and beauty of those palaces and homes harmonious architecture, colors, and adjacent or proximate to one another, built of stone and sculpture soft Alior and decorated with inscriptions and drawings and decorative variety in the walls and windows and contracts "white moon" that are installed above each window and made of white plaster and decorated pieces of small colored glass forms very beautiful addition to Kabbat mosques and minarets of high white and from the decorations and inscriptions and deployed large number within the city and also orchards, grapes, Alvrsk and pomegranates, and other .. It all makes of Old Sana'a paintings and a unique museum packed with tourists and visitors from other cities and different countries of the world .. Also made it a fascinating unsung poets throughout the ages, ancient and modern, which took perpetuating hair and organize praise and spinning City Beauty Sana'a and charms did not overlook the most writings and poems that have been made in Sanaa said population and temperament and Hmailhm men and women.
Says Abu Hassan al-Hamdani who died in 340 AH "is not attached to Bhassana Sana woman of the world and attached to Crathn Zervhn woman and therein, jealousy and their form and Dalal and pen"
The traveler Ibn Battuta described the Sana when he visited her, saying: (is a country of Yemen the first large city in good architecture built of bricks and plaster 'many trees and fruits and crops,' moderate air, good water) .. He also adds: and the city of Sana'a furnished with stones if it rains wash all alleys and Oanagaha and inclusive Sanaa one of the best mosques.
And Sana Ahmed Qalqashandi d. 821 AH: (is one of the great cities of Yemen and by the markets and shops, and many have sub-Damascus' to the large number of water and trees, 'and is chair kings of Yemen in the old and said she was house king Altbabap' and Ammaradtha related and not in the country of Yemen Older including architecture and wider than the diameter of the great hill known as Tel (Ghamdan) was exclusively kings bring him down .. and description of this palace in his book (Rewish Almttar) said: It is one of the seven houses that were built on the name of the seven planets.
The Abu Ali slid d. 300 AH was may occur from Sanaa in his book (precious Aloalaq) said: is the city of Yemen, not Yemen, and Hijaz Pthamp not the greatest city of them no more Welcome to the good 'and supervised at all and no more food to them.
Either the Lebanese writer Amin Rihani deceased in 1940, he wrote, "The kings of the Arabs" from Sanaa that he visited in April (April) 1922 any Sanaa represented to us the world I would Malika time Mtheltk our myths I was a woman of mankind and the jinn and like us, knowing I would one day goddess of gratitude. To have said, and this natural beauty and Bhawk Arab poets, what lies in your closet psychological books and manuscripts, science and what is a lie this Knuzk thy palaces and the magic and the magic of the names you .. What lied legends .. Also had thought the names invented by poets for brides and the jinn and imagination, but in the real in the top spot.
The city of palaces:
I knew the old city of Sanaa, inadequate because their homes consists of a set Altqasim floors, in addition to the beautiful, which was followed in the construction process.
Sanaa has four types of buildings and neighborhoods are
• Study of the Arab was common before Islam.
• Islamic style, which was popular after the advent of Islam and the most prominent features of mosques and minarets.
• Study the Ottoman
• Study the Jewish
The Sana'a is divided into three sections in terms of the geographical composition and are separated by a barrier or wall, and each section of a special character and pattern variable.
The eastern section of the city, the bulk comprises the old neighborhoods, mosques and markets characterized by buildings, decoration and luxury multi-storey central section and a collection of gardens and palaces of princes and the imam and the footnote, which houses some of the character of the Ottoman wooden windows.
The third section includes the city of the Jews was that separates between them and the middle section of the city wall of dirt has closed their doors at sunset and opens only with the dawn .. As is the case for the rest of the city gates.
The Yemenite Jews in the city of Sana'a, form a class better than the rest of the classes of the people in terms of standard of living and they were going about their business, religion and enjoy the protection for the imam to pay tribute to the house of money .. The homes built on a pattern different from other types common in the city as no more than two storeys high .. The external walls coated with mud, which quickly breaks down and thus looks the homes were beautiful as they are at home and that a Jewish scheme to imply bad situation and poverty does not even know what the other inside of the funds for the Itmawa.
And then in 1948 when he left the Jews of Sanaa, and home to someone else they sold their homes and shops to inhabitants of the city that did not keep on its old and they demolish the buildings which were milk, brown and turned it built of stone and baked bricks did not go only a short time until he had almost nature of Jewish construction disappears from the city of Sana'a to become the character of the Arab-Islamic city and the rest of the outstanding character of the Ottoman period.
The "Al-Razi," who died in 460 AH that Sana'a architecture completed in the era of Islam.
And expanded Sana'a under the State Alhmdanip century atheist century AD all during the reign of the Ayyubid state in the Ottoman Empire first, and then in the seventeenth century and eighteenth One of the greatest and the most famous landmark city of Sana'a in the Islamic era of the Great Mosque, which is said to be companion Maaz Bin Jabal is the one who put him cornerstone of the year 270 AH and King Mohammed bin dust Bateson and reconstruction after the floods destroyed in 265 AH and was extended by Abbasid era in the year 136 AH.
Historical landmarks:
In addition to the above, there are many monuments of historical landmark famous old city of Sanaa, whether Islamic landmarks or those belonging to the periods of pre-Islamic period and even before the date .. where is the (Great Mosque) of the leading Islamic landmarks in the city is the oldest mosques in Yemen, the most notorious as well as personnel mosque built by Maaz bin Jabal in Taiz .. still the Great Mosque of Sana'a, towering so far, and frequented every day, thousands of worshipers from the city and other corridors, experiencing episodes of religious lessons which are organized on a daily basis.
According to several historians to Companion (Weber Ben Ihns Khuzai Ansari) is the one who built the Great Mosque of Sana'a in the sixth year of the migration order of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him .. I was building this mosque on the same architectural style of the city .. It is said that it had been enlarged in the Abbasid era, specifically the year 136 AH, 'and then in 262 Hijri saw Sana a great flood, a torrent second in Islam' parked that devastated the city, destroyed six thousand houses and destroying the time of the Great Mosque stood Prince Mohammad Bin dust re-built and expanded in the year 265 AH on the the case that it is today, however, saw the restoration of subsequent ceilings, and belts writings under the roofs, for example, the belt written the names of imams existing wall kiss the queen salahite Lady Bint Ahmad has his work .. There are three domes Vanossip located in front of the mihrab of the mosque said to be back to the third century AH.
There is a version to indicate that in the back of the mosque of the gardens of Paradise, In the book Al-Razi "The History of Sana'a," said: I found a line of Ali bin Hassan bin Abdul Waris told me Alsri said: "We talked Ibrahim ibn Yazeed from slaves Alanaami," said Mohamed bin Daud bin Qais states do not bin divided said to him: O Aba Abdullah, David told me that the placement of this cylinder at the example of Imam Alsouh "edifice" in the Strand following the methods from the mosque Sana'a Alsouh of the gardens of Paradise.
Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Abd al-Warith, Abu Mohammed said Alsri Oraneha Alanaami The Aronaha Abu Mohammed and told me Alsri: some of them say "may peace be in this place several of companions of the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him and peace."
The story goes that "who is observing in a mosque in Sanaa in the back as if he i'tikaaf in the fourth kingdom of heaven, and prayed two rak ahs played in mercy to the Day of Resurrection known amended his fifty prayer, then compounded by God so as not to use tell the angels to the Day of Resurrection 0". Therefore, we find a lot of scientists Sana Iatkovn in the Great Mosque until the present day.
The historian, "Razi" in his book "The History of Sana'a" It's in a mosque in Sana'a, the tomb of the Prophet said to him, "Hanadzlah" and that the tomb is located in the western interior of the back of the mosque.
And the Great Mosque of Sana'a Old vast library of books, mothers in the doctrine and religion, old manuscripts and precious books and the original line, the most famous manuscript of the Koran written Caliph may Allah be pleased with him.
What remains of the Great Mosque library list to this day as one of the treasures held by the Islamic Yemen, which is an important part of the heritage and Islamic thought.
Palace Ghamdan
A Palace "Ghamdan" which is the most famous palaces in the history of Arabs and there are different stories in the recipe, and who built some say who built the Palace "Ghamdan" Suleiman expresses bin Qahtan 'said Ibn Hisham said, which was built was to express bin Qahtan and completed after that Wael Ben donkeys bin Saba Bin My Roy A. N. founder Azal bin Qahtan ordered his brother expresses 'and some say that Sam son of Noah, who built' and others refer to King Solomon the son of David peace be upon him is the jinn building three palaces of the queen (biblical) that ruled Yemen in the mid-tenth century BC, the Palace and the Palace Ghamdan Slhin Palace Benon.
However, some novels suggest that Sam is the son of Noah who built this palace 'where it says those accounts that Sam son of Noah thought to live in the land of the north. Turned to coming up out of the south, frequenting the best of the country, until he became the first region, and found Yemen Tayyip house, and pioneered Yemen found field Sana Otaibha, breaking Maqranp (a thin thread, which is estimated by the construction if the D-placement basis) in the hand area of Sana'a, now called the ( Glen Attan) when you mount (disadvantages) built the corner, which is placed by the 'base when he climbed the corner, God sent the birds kidnapped Almaqranp and flew and walked followed for the consideration of where to drop it, go flying into the pockets of bliss (enclaves would rise from the ground and without plateau) from the foot of Mount ( let) fell out, and when he approached him, he flew out and put it on free Ghamdan (free dialect of Yemen is the land included in the highlands) when stabilized Almaqranp Ghamdan a free, informed Sam that he had ordered the construction there, sued Ghamdan Palace, and the drilling focus.
On this side, "says historian months Yemen Abu Muhammad al-Hasan al-Hamdani in his famous book (corona) 'The Palace is the first Ghamdan failure Yemen, and the most impressed by a male celebrity, who founded Ghamdan and began to drill its well-built and is Sam son of Noah.
The Alusi a famous rooms in Ghamdan call (niches), the Court building and what the narrators in the short-Ghamdan the kings of Yemen if they sat in the top of this Abannia n lit candles at night and the view of people from the march of three days.
It was said that the Palace Ghamdan was composed of twenty floors each floor, a height of 20 "arm 'and the room in top floor was dedicated to the King and was in the four corners of four black brass Yellow issuance out of the room if the wind blew as at the beginning visited as a roaring lion .. and another report says Palace Ghamdan the square .. and his staff built of colored marble and consists of seven floors .. the height of each floor, including "50 cubits 'But Hamdani The palace was composed of twenty floors and reach the height of each floor to ten arms' and the room was the last floor board of the King In the four corners black.
And some researchers to suggest that the construction mentioned by Allah Almighty said: (still the foundation of suspicion and shakiness in their hearts) .. 'Is the Palace Ghamdan and that when this verse was revealed sent the Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and peace' scalp Ben Msik Almoradi of ruined it, and when he wanted to destroy did not appreciate it until it burned him, and did not destroy, but after the death of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
However, none of the commentators did not explain this verse to this effect 'where he says (Al-Tabari) that the construction is intended mosque hypocrites Zamakhshari agree with this interpretation.
It was narrated from Omar Bin Al Khattab may Allah be pleased with him said: (not compatible with the Arabs as long as the Ghamdanha) 'In the book Noueiri (end Alorb) that this view urged Othman bin Affan on the demolition of the palace, "said Sapphire Hamwi: (allegedly Khane Yemen, it destroys Ghamdan killed, but explained that killed Osman peace be upon him).
In 618 a large palace built his place Ghamdan Palace which was demolished and built by King Badr al-Din Hassan bin Ali See This palace still stands today in Old Sana'a is called the Palace of arms', where he had witnessed the restoration operations in different periods.
The Abu Muhammad al-Yazidi d. 202 AH said in one of his poems for Sana:
Is not paradise high / above the sky Vghamdan Ihavea.
But not over the face of the earth have created / the same is near or Issalleha.
Commercial station:
, Sanaa, which brings together many researchers, historians and Orientalists as one of the oldest cities in the Arab and the most famous and the place 'was the most important commercial station and famous market for the Arabs for many centuries before and after Islam' as it was said that it was the point of every trader and the world ', therefore, common for the ancient Arabs saying:
(To be Sana'a and long travel ** * The bow of all promises and Onakr).
Remember, some of the material that Sana was a 49-market of various commercial goods and types of crafts and there are many of these markets remains to this day sartorial old historical 'as there were organizations responsible for regulating these markets and the distribution of merchandise, raw materials for craft industries in addition to aspects of relating to prices and the performance of the zakat funds and tax .. and these organizations, which took as well as adjudication of disputes between traders' had an organization called Alia (Board of Trade).
In addition, also was Sana station on the trade route across the plateau of Yemen, a road which replaced by (gum) in the eastern regions of Yemen, who was known since prehistoric date, the road from (Dhofar), the capital of the Kingdom (donkeys) old to (Taif) 'Some believe that the path of the owners (the elephant) and starts (Aden) through (Sana'a) to (Mecca), himself a caravan route that was preparing markets Arabs seasonal before Islam, and there was a market (Sana'a) to be held in half of the month of Ramadan each year in what was known as seasons markets of the Arabs that was starting in (Jandal) between Syria and the Hijaz on the first day of the first month of spring, and market (Alamishqr) abandon Hofuf now and then market (Sohar, Duba) and market (Ahr skilled) on the coast of the Arabian Sea, in addition to market (Aden) and market (Okaz), which is considered one of the greatest markets of the Arabs in past ages.
Consequently, the economic and social infrastructure and extension of a rich history to Sanaa, branding, cultural heritage and a broad and cultural heritage human great and wonderful ', including the architecture unique ambience for the rest of the cities in the world of things, which increased the prestige and importance of this city.
According to statistics available, the neighborhoods that is still a list of Old Sana'a currently has fourteen thousand houses, all highly populated 'while little (Razi) who died in 460 of the migration before the 965 years that the number of houses of this city was during the reign of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, about 120 thousand houses The population was 280 thousand people.

Life in the old city of Sana'a is quite different from anywhere else .. In addition to what is unique about this city architecture with the unique nature of Excellence at the level of cities in the world in all its forms engineering magnificent, which reflect the extent of human ingenuity Yemeni since antiquity in architecture, the daily activity within neighborhoods and streets "Sana" old and markets the historic represented in the movement and activity Workshops daily non-stop, this activity in nature is the other and has its own privacy, particularly with regard to the field of handicrafts, and traditional crafts traditional long-ago historical stages.
Masterpieces of creativity:
In as much, which still houses and buildings, the city retains its architectural character inherent sartorial engineering unique lifespan of a thousand years, to the extent that you find many craft and professional work in the markets is also still exist and live, not die due to factors of time and change of times and transformations of different 'and some of these traditional crafts, which has maintained its historical and remained active to this day 'No doubt it has many components and factors of continuity and resilience to future stages of history' from the perspective of what these products and handicrafts from a link traditional life and human personality of Yemen.
In Old Sana'a mixed arts heritage of the historical and cultural formations offer magnificent architectural structures and artifacts wonderful facial alleys and narrow streets of cobblestone mil color and shops vendors and industrial artisans and vendors deployed amid small squares and street corners as well as landscape movement of people and meted in the markets of this city, and other aspects of life daily, this would constitute a panel of great beauty make you live a reality heritage, culturally and intellectually original, inhale the fragrance of history and delve into the depths of Doakhlh and cruising your imagination in Rehab human civilization ancient manifested Roaiaha through these palaces, towers and through Alsmasser and markets in the old city are the city that inspired poets and writers, writers and researchers Arabs and foreigners across the various stages of history, which is found in dozens of books and literature of ancient and modern, who speaks for all of Sanaa.
Perhaps it is worth pointing out here is that there is a consensus by the owners of those works that the old city of Sana'a is a living history museum, 'and was one of the Orientalists, the Europeans have visited the city after curfew in several cities in the world .. Then wrote in his memoirs that for the first time - any date - walking in Sana'a, Yemen.
And talk about Sana long that has no end, and standing before what was known and what remains of industries and handicrafts, traditional, we find that there are more things embodied the spirit of originality and the essence of creativity and arts heritage and over the aesthetics and Masterpieces Qabas historical Tertsm with image and conscience alive not Hall Heritage Bvenh and culture and all its meanings.
Sana markets:
Markets that reflect the beauty of traditional artisan creativity, a market of "silver." Activity in this market is in two parts: one representing the process of buying and selling jewelry and other antiques jewelry, tools, silver, on the other side there is the process of Altchina and recycling of different types of jewelry and silver jewelry. Though this type of activity confined to the limited scope and a certain number of craftsmen.
Perhaps the "Opal" Yamani is one of the most famous handicrafts market-based "silver." And onyx also emphasizes the sources and stories of old, one of the best kinds of Garnet and there is reason for his fame to an interview he tells about the Prophet Muhammad "Y" that he said "Takhtmwa agate Yamani, it is first to secure the God in monotheism and witnessed Mohamed message" and a lot of visitors to the silver market Sana'a ancient Yemenis and expatriates from Arab and Islamic countries are keen on decorating Joatmanm grains onyx, which are said to be types which saves the bearer of magic and envy, and other types against the bites of snakes and scorpions, and other pious and help to heal many ailments.
And the finest types of Yemeni agate and attracting a large so-called agate, "the Roman" and "flourishing" and is characterized by two different types Ballowanhma spotless.
Being extracted and onyx stones from the mountains in certain areas of Yemen. And the process industry Garnet require a lot of effort, is undergoing several stages starting from extracting the "lobes" from among the large stones carved out of mountains, which are transported to market silver Sana'a and specialists Petkserha and carved until you reach lobe garnet, and then begin the process of making and the formation of lobe in four stages is the sculpture by four large circular stones, each stone of which a certain degree of roughness to be directed lobe garnet in its final form .. In that multiple forms of beauty is decorated rings and some kinds of jewelry, silver jewelry and gold.
In addition to onyx There is also a "coral" and "convenience" and "anguish" yellow, red and other precious stones that fall within the industries silver Sana'a old, and silver is decorated daggers Yemeni known as "Paljnbep" belts and swords, and others.
There is a market of "al-Janabi and Alasub" and "pleural" or dagger of Yemen, a sharp tool fixed to handle special and sidearms in Yemen several types, some cheap and some are average price, and some are expensive, there are kinds of Janabi up prices to rates fictional estimated tens of thousands of dollars .. This type of al-Janabi, has some special specifications known only to people with experience, and are usually machine made acute a special kind of .. Of iron or "Hinduan" and taking possession of the helmets from centuries of rare animals like deer and rhino.
There is no doubt that the process of pleural industry requires expertise and special skill. This process is passed through several stages until the final form of pleural out, and there are tools and materials used by the owners of this profession .. Because the pleural is essentially a personal weapons (white) and pet-friendly people, a Yemeni who considered complementary to the character and appearance, there is a so-called "Balasib" which is part of the wooden placed inside pleural or what might be called Baghamd usually made of light wood such as wood, "Plum "or" Anbrod ", is his sculpture, processing and packaging" Skin "and strings" Bamboo "and comes after the" belt "that proves Alasib (Ghamda) sidearms in the middle. With this belt, a man can wear sidearms installed the bottom of the stomach where the belt is wrapped at the waist ..
And industry "Alasub" and "Packages" of Paljnabe are other has its own distinctive arts, and is embroidered belts by "threads". The embroidery is a good that is manually and is usually done by women .. In nature and embroidery takes several colors and graphics consistent and beautiful.
It must be pointed out that it was usual to use gold and silver to decorate the handle as well as pleural sheath and belt .. Process industry Janabi and found in most Yemeni cities, but the old city of Sana'a has a reputation, especially in this aspect, considering that such a craft in his city, these dimensions of cultural heritage and history.
There is a market of "copper", which includes many different industries, copper, which still retains much of the nature heritage "San'aani" brilliant .. As well as household utensils and tools, there is also industry "Madaia" and "vases" and "censor" and "antiques" and other handmade copper products including in respect of forms and decoration reflect the engagement of the owners of these letter links to creativity and heritage.
It is a market of "copper" to "market Mahdadp" and "market Almnjarp" In these markets Otiqin are manufacture of agricultural tools "old - new" used widely in many areas of Yemen and chiefly in the mountainous regions where people still tilling the land by donkeys, cows and plows users the tools that are processed locally, as is the case in the market, "Mahdadp" Old Sana'a, which is also the industry hoes, axes and crowbars, knives and other tools made of iron ..
The market "Almnjarp" is subject to be doors and shutters in the old way .. and that was imported wood used in the industry had been dominated largely on timber taken from the trunks of trees, local, the unique character of the makers of windows and doors still maintains that much of the heritage Even the shutters and all the hooks used in the manufacture or enter doors and windows of the iron is of the type of hand-made in the market, "Mahdadp" next to "market Almnjarp."
Despite the harshness of the work and onerous in these two markets is used Craftsmen styles primitive in the ways and smelting and cutting steel industry such tools and different products, and the major effort undertaken in spite of the inconvenience caused by the process of the iron and wood trade but that the accuracy of the work and wonderful creativity and a working heritage and historical attachment to these professions, makes it is easy, and prevents vote emitted by road blocks or iron cutting logs into pieces of music enjoyed by the visitor, standing either shop "mourning" or "carpenter" in Old Sana'a.
Yes .. This is Sana .. Al-Hassan, Beauty and the kiss of history and the source of the culture and heritage .. Sanaa, which remained throughout the ages saint in the hearts of poets who have been perpetuating hair and organize poems love and rhymes that hailing Sana'a and the remnants of the values of beauty and originality that is reflected through its unique elements of heritage and architectural aesthetics of art Boutrazath and colors, which are the exquisite paintings reflected today in the coolest and most vivid images to look with a luscious Sana Khassana crash cordon outside the shame and silence, declared itself the capital of Arab culture.
Also carried Old Sanaa after the name of the city (still) in relation to one of the kings (SABA) 'which is Azal Ben lived bin aromas bin Amer bin Shalikh grandson of Sam son of Noah who was named as well as in the language of Yemen old and mean power and strength and it is derived, as some sources say Name of the King السبئي (Iozl between) who lived in the third century AD has been received Name (Azal) in the Torah also 'Then came the name (Sana) then considered synonymous with the name (still) and derives its name Sanaa making sense of a fortress and (Prevention) which is in line in meaning with (still).
As it is said, called the "Sanaa" for the quality of workmanship and a reputation for some of the manufacturers s copper, silver, and the other 'In another account that Sana was taken from the word "manufactured", which appeared in four inscriptions from the group patterns combined with the King "to explain Ihsb" There are those who say that Sana'a is the language of Some tribes Khawlan as stated in the "Dictionary of countries" and in 525 AD conquered by the Ethiopians found it built of stone fortress and they said this "manufacture" means the bunker became known as "Sana" 'as they are known for thousands of years copper industry and alloys different embroidery industry-Janabi "daggers."
According to researcher and investigator Yemeni Dr. Yousef Mohammad, Abdullah said the name of Sana in the inscriptions is (dropped out / Snao) and dropped out of the language of the people of Yemen is the old city .. He pointed out that Sana said after the inscription of the reign of King السبئي Dhamar Ali about a year (90 AD) and Another inscription from the reigns of two kings (o back pride, then quickly passed Tdm Ihhamd) and the reign of King (gave no possession) and from each of these families Spiip different and ruled Yemen in the period (100-120 AD) .. and thus the opinion of Dr. Yusuf Mohammed Abdullah, it is possible to say that the city of Sana'a have known by this name in the birth of Christ, peace be upon him, probably not.
There are those who tell that (Sanaa) is the language of some tribes (Khawlan), as stated in the book (dictionary countries) and Khawlan of the most famous tribes of Yemen and currently living in areas south and southeast of the capital of Yemen.
Historians say that Sana'a through phases many historical pre-Islam which the occupying Ethiopian Yemen At that period the Sana most important phase of a provision that "Abraha", which as the capital and built a church "Kulais" and adorned with marble and mosaics, and wanted to transfer the Kaaba bright to Sanaa Hajj to the Arabs.
The "is the administration," the last king of the State Himyarite been taken by the capital of his kingdom in the early sixth century AD, and also make the Ethiopians who invaded Yemen and ruled from 525 AD to 575 AD.
As indicated in the sources of information have been Sana of the invasion about 20 times between 901-913 AD He spoke of many historians, the first from Sanaa and tell Vzla "Abu Ali ibn dozen" d. 300 AH in his book Aloalaq psychological, "he said .. is the city of Yemen, not Yemen, in Pthamp not the greatest city in the Hijaz, including no more Welcome to the good nor supervised originally best food in them.
Authenticity and nobility:
Sanaa and the day consisted of two parts ancient and modern, they are often interrelated and are connected to each other .. The fact that some neighborhoods containing houses of old and new at once and in particular those living in the center of the city and what can be said that the buildings and houses have been established through decades of this century have served to separate the various districts of Old Sana'a from each other .. Still, much of the Old Sana'a full of heritage and its people and character of the old .. Which is the eastern and south-east of the historic city of Surat, which is still the other stands today has seen this part of the restoration and maintenance of several periods, either other parts of the remaining buildings and homes became scattered in a number of areas in the center of Sanaa, which is a combination of ancient and modern ..
Overall, Sana still retains its authenticity and originality, heritage and art Architectural Excellence known as engineered islands Alhaddaiekaya for thousands of years and which reflect the splendor and beauty of those palaces and homes harmonious architecture, colors, and adjacent or proximate to one another, built of stone and sculpture soft Alior and decorated with inscriptions and drawings and decorative variety in the walls and windows and contracts "white moon" that are installed above each window and made of white plaster and decorated pieces of small colored glass forms very beautiful addition to Kabbat mosques and minarets of high white and from the decorations and inscriptions and deployed large number within the city and also orchards, grapes, Alvrsk and pomegranates, and other .. It all makes of Old Sana'a paintings and a unique museum packed with tourists and visitors from other cities and different countries of the world .. Also made it a fascinating unsung poets throughout the ages, ancient and modern, which took perpetuating hair and organize praise and spinning City Beauty Sana'a and charms did not overlook the most writings and poems that have been made in Sanaa said population and temperament and Hmailhm men and women.
Says Abu Hassan al-Hamdani who died in 340 AH "is not attached to Bhassana Sana woman of the world and attached to Crathn Zervhn woman and therein, jealousy and their form and Dalal and pen"
The traveler Ibn Battuta described the Sana when he visited her, saying: (is a country of Yemen the first large city in good architecture built of bricks and plaster 'many trees and fruits and crops,' moderate air, good water) .. He also adds: and the city of Sana'a furnished with stones if it rains wash all alleys and Oanagaha and inclusive Sanaa one of the best mosques.
And Sana Ahmed Qalqashandi d. 821 AH: (is one of the great cities of Yemen and by the markets and shops, and many have sub-Damascus' to the large number of water and trees, 'and is chair kings of Yemen in the old and said she was house king Altbabap' and Ammaradtha related and not in the country of Yemen Older including architecture and wider than the diameter of the great hill known as Tel (Ghamdan) was exclusively kings bring him down .. and description of this palace in his book (Rewish Almttar) said: It is one of the seven houses that were built on the name of the seven planets.
The Abu Ali slid d. 300 AH was may occur from Sanaa in his book (precious Aloalaq) said: is the city of Yemen, not Yemen, and Hijaz Pthamp not the greatest city of them no more Welcome to the good 'and supervised at all and no more food to them.
Either the Lebanese writer Amin Rihani deceased in 1940, he wrote, "The kings of the Arabs" from Sanaa that he visited in April (April) 1922 any Sanaa represented to us the world I would Malika time Mtheltk our myths I was a woman of mankind and the jinn and like us, knowing I would one day goddess of gratitude. To have said, and this natural beauty and Bhawk Arab poets, what lies in your closet psychological books and manuscripts, science and what is a lie this Knuzk thy palaces and the magic and the magic of the names you .. What lied legends .. Also had thought the names invented by poets for brides and the jinn and imagination, but in the real in the top spot.
The city of palaces:
I knew the old city of Sanaa, inadequate because their homes consists of a set Altqasim floors, in addition to the beautiful, which was followed in the construction process.
Sanaa has four types of buildings and neighborhoods are
• Study of the Arab was common before Islam.
• Islamic style, which was popular after the advent of Islam and the most prominent features of mosques and minarets.
• Study the Ottoman
• Study the Jewish
The Sana'a is divided into three sections in terms of the geographical composition and are separated by a barrier or wall, and each section of a special character and pattern variable.
The eastern section of the city, the bulk comprises the old neighborhoods, mosques and markets characterized by buildings, decoration and luxury multi-storey central section and a collection of gardens and palaces of princes and the imam and the footnote, which houses some of the character of the Ottoman wooden windows.
The third section includes the city of the Jews was that separates between them and the middle section of the city wall of dirt has closed their doors at sunset and opens only with the dawn .. As is the case for the rest of the city gates.
The Yemenite Jews in the city of Sana'a, form a class better than the rest of the classes of the people in terms of standard of living and they were going about their business, religion and enjoy the protection for the imam to pay tribute to the house of money .. The homes built on a pattern different from other types common in the city as no more than two storeys high .. The external walls coated with mud, which quickly breaks down and thus looks the homes were beautiful as they are at home and that a Jewish scheme to imply bad situation and poverty does not even know what the other inside of the funds for the Itmawa.
And then in 1948 when he left the Jews of Sanaa, and home to someone else they sold their homes and shops to inhabitants of the city that did not keep on its old and they demolish the buildings which were milk, brown and turned it built of stone and baked bricks did not go only a short time until he had almost nature of Jewish construction disappears from the city of Sana'a to become the character of the Arab-Islamic city and the rest of the outstanding character of the Ottoman period.
The "Al-Razi," who died in 460 AH that Sana'a architecture completed in the era of Islam.
And expanded Sana'a under the State Alhmdanip century atheist century AD all during the reign of the Ayyubid state in the Ottoman Empire first, and then in the seventeenth century and eighteenth One of the greatest and the most famous landmark city of Sana'a in the Islamic era of the Great Mosque, which is said to be companion Maaz Bin Jabal is the one who put him cornerstone of the year 270 AH and King Mohammed bin dust Bateson and reconstruction after the floods destroyed in 265 AH and was extended by Abbasid era in the year 136 AH.
Historical landmarks:
In addition to the above, there are many monuments of historical landmark famous old city of Sanaa, whether Islamic landmarks or those belonging to the periods of pre-Islamic period and even before the date .. where is the (Great Mosque) of the leading Islamic landmarks in the city is the oldest mosques in Yemen, the most notorious as well as personnel mosque built by Maaz bin Jabal in Taiz .. still the Great Mosque of Sana'a, towering so far, and frequented every day, thousands of worshipers from the city and other corridors, experiencing episodes of religious lessons which are organized on a daily basis.
According to several historians to Companion (Weber Ben Ihns Khuzai Ansari) is the one who built the Great Mosque of Sana'a in the sixth year of the migration order of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him .. I was building this mosque on the same architectural style of the city .. It is said that it had been enlarged in the Abbasid era, specifically the year 136 AH, 'and then in 262 Hijri saw Sana a great flood, a torrent second in Islam' parked that devastated the city, destroyed six thousand houses and destroying the time of the Great Mosque stood Prince Mohammad Bin dust re-built and expanded in the year 265 AH on the the case that it is today, however, saw the restoration of subsequent ceilings, and belts writings under the roofs, for example, the belt written the names of imams existing wall kiss the queen salahite Lady Bint Ahmad has his work .. There are three domes Vanossip located in front of the mihrab of the mosque said to be back to the third century AH.
There is a version to indicate that in the back of the mosque of the gardens of Paradise, In the book Al-Razi "The History of Sana'a," said: I found a line of Ali bin Hassan bin Abdul Waris told me Alsri said: "We talked Ibrahim ibn Yazeed from slaves Alanaami," said Mohamed bin Daud bin Qais states do not bin divided said to him: O Aba Abdullah, David told me that the placement of this cylinder at the example of Imam Alsouh "edifice" in the Strand following the methods from the mosque Sana'a Alsouh of the gardens of Paradise.
Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Abd al-Warith, Abu Mohammed said Alsri Oraneha Alanaami The Aronaha Abu Mohammed and told me Alsri: some of them say "may peace be in this place several of companions of the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him and peace."
The story goes that "who is observing in a mosque in Sanaa in the back as if he i'tikaaf in the fourth kingdom of heaven, and prayed two rak ahs played in mercy to the Day of Resurrection known amended his fifty prayer, then compounded by God so as not to use tell the angels to the Day of Resurrection 0". Therefore, we find a lot of scientists Sana Iatkovn in the Great Mosque until the present day.
The historian, "Razi" in his book "The History of Sana'a" It's in a mosque in Sana'a, the tomb of the Prophet said to him, "Hanadzlah" and that the tomb is located in the western interior of the back of the mosque.
And the Great Mosque of Sana'a Old vast library of books, mothers in the doctrine and religion, old manuscripts and precious books and the original line, the most famous manuscript of the Koran written Caliph may Allah be pleased with him.
What remains of the Great Mosque library list to this day as one of the treasures held by the Islamic Yemen, which is an important part of the heritage and Islamic thought.
Palace Ghamdan
A Palace "Ghamdan" which is the most famous palaces in the history of Arabs and there are different stories in the recipe, and who built some say who built the Palace "Ghamdan" Suleiman expresses bin Qahtan 'said Ibn Hisham said, which was built was to express bin Qahtan and completed after that Wael Ben donkeys bin Saba Bin My Roy A. N. founder Azal bin Qahtan ordered his brother expresses 'and some say that Sam son of Noah, who built' and others refer to King Solomon the son of David peace be upon him is the jinn building three palaces of the queen (biblical) that ruled Yemen in the mid-tenth century BC, the Palace and the Palace Ghamdan Slhin Palace Benon.
However, some novels suggest that Sam is the son of Noah who built this palace 'where it says those accounts that Sam son of Noah thought to live in the land of the north. Turned to coming up out of the south, frequenting the best of the country, until he became the first region, and found Yemen Tayyip house, and pioneered Yemen found field Sana Otaibha, breaking Maqranp (a thin thread, which is estimated by the construction if the D-placement basis) in the hand area of Sana'a, now called the ( Glen Attan) when you mount (disadvantages) built the corner, which is placed by the 'base when he climbed the corner, God sent the birds kidnapped Almaqranp and flew and walked followed for the consideration of where to drop it, go flying into the pockets of bliss (enclaves would rise from the ground and without plateau) from the foot of Mount ( let) fell out, and when he approached him, he flew out and put it on free Ghamdan (free dialect of Yemen is the land included in the highlands) when stabilized Almaqranp Ghamdan a free, informed Sam that he had ordered the construction there, sued Ghamdan Palace, and the drilling focus.
On this side, "says historian months Yemen Abu Muhammad al-Hasan al-Hamdani in his famous book (corona) 'The Palace is the first Ghamdan failure Yemen, and the most impressed by a male celebrity, who founded Ghamdan and began to drill its well-built and is Sam son of Noah.
The Alusi a famous rooms in Ghamdan call (niches), the Court building and what the narrators in the short-Ghamdan the kings of Yemen if they sat in the top of this Abannia n lit candles at night and the view of people from the march of three days.
It was said that the Palace Ghamdan was composed of twenty floors each floor, a height of 20 "arm 'and the room in top floor was dedicated to the King and was in the four corners of four black brass Yellow issuance out of the room if the wind blew as at the beginning visited as a roaring lion .. and another report says Palace Ghamdan the square .. and his staff built of colored marble and consists of seven floors .. the height of each floor, including "50 cubits 'But Hamdani The palace was composed of twenty floors and reach the height of each floor to ten arms' and the room was the last floor board of the King In the four corners black.
And some researchers to suggest that the construction mentioned by Allah Almighty said: (still the foundation of suspicion and shakiness in their hearts) .. 'Is the Palace Ghamdan and that when this verse was revealed sent the Prophet Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah, and peace' scalp Ben Msik Almoradi of ruined it, and when he wanted to destroy did not appreciate it until it burned him, and did not destroy, but after the death of the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him.
However, none of the commentators did not explain this verse to this effect 'where he says (Al-Tabari) that the construction is intended mosque hypocrites Zamakhshari agree with this interpretation.
It was narrated from Omar Bin Al Khattab may Allah be pleased with him said: (not compatible with the Arabs as long as the Ghamdanha) 'In the book Noueiri (end Alorb) that this view urged Othman bin Affan on the demolition of the palace, "said Sapphire Hamwi: (allegedly Khane Yemen, it destroys Ghamdan killed, but explained that killed Osman peace be upon him).
In 618 a large palace built his place Ghamdan Palace which was demolished and built by King Badr al-Din Hassan bin Ali See This palace still stands today in Old Sana'a is called the Palace of arms', where he had witnessed the restoration operations in different periods.
The Abu Muhammad al-Yazidi d. 202 AH said in one of his poems for Sana:
Is not paradise high / above the sky Vghamdan Ihavea.
But not over the face of the earth have created / the same is near or Issalleha.
Commercial station:
, Sanaa, which brings together many researchers, historians and Orientalists as one of the oldest cities in the Arab and the most famous and the place 'was the most important commercial station and famous market for the Arabs for many centuries before and after Islam' as it was said that it was the point of every trader and the world ', therefore, common for the ancient Arabs saying:
(To be Sana'a and long travel ** * The bow of all promises and Onakr).
Remember, some of the material that Sana was a 49-market of various commercial goods and types of crafts and there are many of these markets remains to this day sartorial old historical 'as there were organizations responsible for regulating these markets and the distribution of merchandise, raw materials for craft industries in addition to aspects of relating to prices and the performance of the zakat funds and tax .. and these organizations, which took as well as adjudication of disputes between traders' had an organization called Alia (Board of Trade).
In addition, also was Sana station on the trade route across the plateau of Yemen, a road which replaced by (gum) in the eastern regions of Yemen, who was known since prehistoric date, the road from (Dhofar), the capital of the Kingdom (donkeys) old to (Taif) 'Some believe that the path of the owners (the elephant) and starts (Aden) through (Sana'a) to (Mecca), himself a caravan route that was preparing markets Arabs seasonal before Islam, and there was a market (Sana'a) to be held in half of the month of Ramadan each year in what was known as seasons markets of the Arabs that was starting in (Jandal) between Syria and the Hijaz on the first day of the first month of spring, and market (Alamishqr) abandon Hofuf now and then market (Sohar, Duba) and market (Ahr skilled) on the coast of the Arabian Sea, in addition to market (Aden) and market (Okaz), which is considered one of the greatest markets of the Arabs in past ages.
Consequently, the economic and social infrastructure and extension of a rich history to Sanaa, branding, cultural heritage and a broad and cultural heritage human great and wonderful ', including the architecture unique ambience for the rest of the cities in the world of things, which increased the prestige and importance of this city.
According to statistics available, the neighborhoods that is still a list of Old Sana'a currently has fourteen thousand houses, all highly populated 'while little (Razi) who died in 460 of the migration before the 965 years that the number of houses of this city was during the reign of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, about 120 thousand houses The population was 280 thousand people.

Masterpieces of creativity:
In as much, which still houses and buildings, the city retains its architectural character inherent sartorial engineering unique lifespan of a thousand years, to the extent that you find many craft and professional work in the markets is also still exist and live, not die due to factors of time and change of times and transformations of different 'and some of these traditional crafts, which has maintained its historical and remained active to this day 'No doubt it has many components and factors of continuity and resilience to future stages of history' from the perspective of what these products and handicrafts from a link traditional life and human personality of Yemen.

Perhaps it is worth pointing out here is that there is a consensus by the owners of those works that the old city of Sana'a is a living history museum, 'and was one of the Orientalists, the Europeans have visited the city after curfew in several cities in the world .. Then wrote in his memoirs that for the first time - any date - walking in Sana'a, Yemen.

Sana markets:
Markets that reflect the beauty of traditional artisan creativity, a market of "silver." Activity in this market is in two parts: one representing the process of buying and selling jewelry and other antiques jewelry, tools, silver, on the other side there is the process of Altchina and recycling of different types of jewelry and silver jewelry.
