Introduction
I am going to talk about Arabia and its history. So sit back and enjoy my report about Arabia.
Arabia is boarded by the Indian ocean on the south , just to survive in the old days it was really hard.
Because the Arabian desert was the must dangerous place to travel through.
Desert city and history
First, if you just stepped in the desert you would disappear. Arabian people use to live in desert houses but that all change until they built cities.
Secondly , the popluation is 13 million people. There is one city that architects bulit , Mecca.
We all know of the HOLY CITY of MECCA . In the IMAX film the guider took us to his home town
called Jabi . He was born there , it still looks the same has when he was a little boy. Now lets talk about the Arabian desert , it is a windy desert . As a result, people live there and travel through it. The sandy Arabian desert has mountains and camels. Camels have three eyebrows to protect them from sand in the desert .
Thirdly, lets talk about Arabian history ; 25 million year ago there was a divide from the Red Sea; all the animals from Africa (East Asia) over to Arabia. That is why you see animals there. We are now going to take you under the Inidan ocean. This ocean is so pretty and has a lot of ancient ships. These ship use to carry a lot of oils, gold , silver , and money. The ancient people called the Nabatechs carved tombs.
Furthermore, GUESS WHO was BORN IN MECCA ? Prophet Muhammad {PBUH) was born there. And he spent most of his lifetime in the mosque . All muslims believe in one god whose proper name is ALLAH. ALL MUSLIMS AROUND THE WORLD go to the Kaaba in Mecca , we walk around it seven times during hajj.
In conclusion, Arabia is a beautiful place to visit and it is the BEST PART of the planet Earth..
