Yemen

Yemen is an Arab country in Western Asia, occupying the southwestern to the southern end of the Arabian Peninsula. It is the second-largest country in the peninsula, occupying 527,970 km2 (203,850 sq mi). Yemen has long served as a crossroads between East and West, particularly the port city of Aden, which is situated conveniently for maritime trade routes from Europe to India and countries further east.

Yemen is a difficult country to get around, but the rewards for the persevering visitor are an unforgettable experience, populated with very friendly and open hosts. Despite being adjacent to Saudi Arabia and on the same peninsula as the United Arab Emirates, Yemen is definitely a place apart.
