Introduction

The Republic of Yemen is the least known, and in many ways the most spectacular, region of all Arabia. As much of the Central Highlands rises over 3000m (10,000ft), travellers should be prepared for the high altitudes. The attraction of the Republic of Yemen for the visitor is largely its striking scenery, spectacular Islamic and pre-Islamic architecture and the deep sense of the past. Tours are available within and around the major cities; enquire at local travel agents for details.
