A mosque in Mokha, Yemen 1929

This photograph shows a mosque in Mocha, Yemen in 1996, a significant religious and cultural landmark in this historic port city along the Red Sea.
The architectural style reflects Mocha’s rich Islamic heritage and its role as a center of culture and community in the late 20th-century period.
At that time, Yemen was unified following the 1990 unification of North and South, and was experiencing a transitional era of social and cultural renewal.
The mosque stands as a testament to the persistence of Islamic traditions and the evolving identity of the city in a changing context.
