Al-BaladThis commercial area is called Al-Balad meaning "the town". This is Jeddah's historic town, founded in the 7th century. It had defensive walls until the 1940s. In the 1970s and 1980s, when Jeddah began to become wealthier due to the oil boom, many Jeddawis moved north, away from Al-Balad, as it reminded them of less prosperous times. Currently, it has many museums and stores, and it is a UNESCO's World Heritage site.
