With a fistful of stony ridges overlooking the Red Sea's mouth, this Yemeni port city bears its scars stoically through a fog of conflict. Aquamarine waters kiss the shores of Gold Mohur Beach, and the Shamsan mountains' views overlook Aden's weathered beauty. The Cisterns of Tawila might be dry but still, possess an antiquated power. Like the crater that forms its bay, Aden harbours a dormant peace, yearning to thrive.
