A few recent photos of Al Mukalla:

Most of the most beautiful beaches in Yemen, are on the Hadhramout coast; and in Mahra and on the island of Socotra. Above, in Bweysh, Al Mukalla, at sunset, an empty and quiet beach.

The swimming pool, Hadhramaut Hotel, in Khalf.

Views from the hotel, above and bottom.

Far, in the distance, from the hotel, can be seen parts of Mukalla Old Town.

Looks beautiful. It would be intresting to vist and see what changes have occured over the yrs. I have often wondered how much room of expansion there is to Mukalla which i surrounded by mountains.

SF: Not only in pictures - Al Mukalla, and indeed Hadhramout, is truly amazing.

Nahdy: beyond the mountains, Al Mukalla has wide expanses of land for expansion. It's only the narrow Mukalla proper that is surrounded by mountains. But a few minutes away, to the East towards Riyan airport, is the wide, large expanse of land that extends for hundreds of miles. And to the West, where Mukalla is rapidly expanding in Fu'wa and beyond, is another wide, large expanse of land that goes on too, for many miles.
