Yemen
Sana'a is the capital of Yemen
With Jebel Nugum towering over it, Sana'a sits on the narrowest point of a major mountain plateau, (2.286 metres) above sea level. The region's volcanic origin and regular rainfall make it fertile and it enjoys a temperate climate throughout the year with the occasional sharp frost in the small hours of winter nights. One legend tells of its founding by Shem the son of Noah.
Yemen Health Care and Vaccinations
Health care facilities are relatively poor, especially outside major cities.
