Tahliah Street (Jeddah)

[1] The street contains many upscale department shops, and boutiques, such as Prada, Gucci, Versace, Cartier, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana, Ralph Lauren and Giorgio Armani.

As the Champs-Élysées is for Paris, Tahlia Street is believed to be the heart of Jeddah and Saudi Arabia's wealthiest district.

[citation needed] In 1981, Mayor Mohammed Said Farsi wanted to place a monumental statue on Tahlia Street.

He asked the Belgian artist Hubert Minnebo to make a 15 meter high copper statue.

This commercial street is the destination of soccer fans, who drive up and down waving club scarves and sounding their car horns to celebrate victory.
