A home that houses history at its finest. This UNESCO World heritage site dates back from its construction in 1876 until 1881 by elite family of Omar Nassif Efendi. It has been opened as a museum and cultural center in 2009 where exhibits and lectures are given by some historians. It was also tagged as "kind of social salon" in 1920's by John Bradley due to some consuls and merchants were gathered here. Inside it, visitors and tourists could find Arabic Calligraphy and designs on walls and tiles originally by Ottoman Turks. This so called " The House with the Tree " has 106 rooms where you could find artworks and a private library which in time accumulated 16,000 books that belongs to King Abdulaziz University central library. When you happen to visit Al Balad try to take a glimpse of its interesting Jeddah story - learn more of Nassif House Museum??????❤?

UNESCO world heritage site. Must see the wide ramp going up to the roof. It was design for riding camels on. Listening to evening prayer calls on the roof is a magical experience.

Place is very beautiful, very suitable for the weekend to take a walk, the old building has distinguishing feature very much, could you take a photo shoot, health is not very clean, there are a lot of garbage, pay attention to those businessmen will greet you into the store to buy things, if you don't shopping don't go to take a reason him, four in the afternoon, suggest you don't go to, because the sun is basked in, I wish you a happy play

An important and historical building, I recommend a visit if ever you find yourself in the old down town. Walk into the past and experience one of jeddah best and oldest preserved houses.
