Descripción:

From the 1860s onward, Jeddah became the key point where colonial powers, European consuls, Ottoman and Hijazi rulers and sanitary teams worked together to organize the pilgrimage. The increasing arrivals by sea during the 19th century, and the new functions connected with the pilgrimage, changed the face of the city.
