About Aden, Yemen
Yemen’s port city Aden has experienced a varied and turbulent history. It is mentioned in the
chronicles of Marco Polo as a trading hub where goods from East and West were traded. At one point
in time, the city boasted a minor empire, controlling nearby parts of Africa. The city came under
the control of Britain in the 19th century. Prior to Yemeni reunification, Aden functioned as South
Yemen’s capital city. Today Aden is Yemen’s financial and economic centre, and as an international
free trade zone has more cosmopolitan influences than the other parts of the country.
The old town of the city and its natural harbour are located in an extinct volcano crater;
the Aden Peninsula’s opposite side is the location of the more recently constructed port.
Aden is a picturesque and appealing city with its intermingling of conventional Arabic and
European influences. A thriving port city adjoining the Red Sea, Aden offers a multitude of
