Jeddah, MINA – Al-Balad’s famous market in Jeddah, has begun to reopen gradually at night, after the government eased curfews to stem the spread of coronavirus.

During the day, traders and buyers in al-Balad comply with applicable health prevention measures. Thus quoted from Awsar on Saturday, May 5.

Al-Balad was founded in the 7th century and has historically been a shopping center in Jeddah.
