Sanaa

He describes its rains as heavy, flowing downpours, and its mosque as one of the finest mosques, containing a relic of one of the prophets 1.

Aden

A harbour of the land of Yemen on the coast of the Great Sea, surrounded by mountains, with only one approach to it. It has no crops, no trees and no water, but it has cisterns in which rainwater gathers 1.
