Mohammed Al-Lakhmi’s residence in the Al-Faisaliyah district of Jeddah has gained popularity as a Ramadan destination because of his own initiative to create a heritage environment inspired by the old city of Al-Balad across the house and the neighbouring street.
Large lanterns, elegant lighting, and a replica of the Ramadan cannon are among the decorations, making it a well-liked location for photographers and onlookers to take in the joyous ambience and remember memories of a bygone period.
Jeddah’s Ramadan Appeal Rises with Al‑Lakhmi’s House
Jeddah is illuminated with pleasure and beauty as the holy month of Ramadan approaches. Thanks to a Saudi citizen who embraced heritage and moved it into the modern era, the Al-Faisaliyah district saw a unique event this year.
Mohammed Al-Lakhmi turned his house into a work of art that combines a contemporary vibe with the ambiance of traditional Ramadan.
In addition, the citizen drew his inspiration from his childhood memories in Jeddah’s historic Al-Balad district, where lanterns and traditional decorations were an integral part of Ramadan’s identity. Moreover, he gathered these artefacts and put them in the Al-Faisaliyah neighbourhood to represent a link between the ancient past and the regenerated present.

The preparation for the work was intense and required around two months. It was a difficult task to create this beautiful masterpiece. The decorations, which cost 17,000 riyals, reflected the beauty and spirituality of the holy month and included large lanterns, a crescent moon, a Ramadan cannon, and harmonising lighting that graced the house and the street.
Likewise, the Al-Lakhmi house soon gained popularity among locals and tourists, drawing photographers looking for real Ramadan scenes. The social impact was clear as neighbours relished a daily spectacle that bolstered ties within the neighbourhood and brought back memories of easier times.
