Summary

Description The walled city of Sana'a offers one of the most outstanding examples of a homogeneous architectural ensemble in the Middle East. Its design and layout translate an organization of space characteristic of the early centuries of Islam which has been respected over time. The monumental area of Sana'a, however, has become vulnerable as a result of contemporary social changes, and the rapid new development which is eroding its character and threatening its visual integrity.
