view from port showing aden port yemen 1880

This 1880 photograph presents a rare view from inside Aden Port, looking outward toward anchored steamships and the rocky harbor landscape.
Under British colonial rule, the port served as a vital hub along the Suez–India route, fueling ships and facilitating international trade.
The image captures both the strategic function and daily activity of one of the 19th century’s most important imperial harbors.
