Yemen - Statistics & Facts

Yemen is located in the Middle East, bordering Oman and Saudi Arabia. It has a population of around 30 million people, and is expected to surpass this amount by more than four million by 2022. The country's population growth has been slowly decreasing over the last years, most noticeably during the last decade. Yemen's capital, Sanaa, is the most populated city in the country, and at the same time, holds the tragic reputation of being among Asian cities with the highest homicide rates . Although Yemen's population is estimated to increase in the following years, the fertility rate has been on a decline since 2005, in accordance with the country's population growth trend; still, the birth rate is quite high compared to other countries: In 2015, it amounted to 4.1 children per woman. The Republic of Yemen, which was part of the Ottoman Empire until 1918, was established through the union of the Yemen Arab Republic, or North Yemen, and South Yemen in 1990. The official language spoken here is Arabic, but numerous other local languages and dialects are spoken as well. Due to political and societal instability in the country, Yemen's economy is rather shaky as well. Yemen has been struggling with political unrest (like the Yemeni crisis in 2011), the presence of Al-Qaeda with resulting conflicts and the death of civilians, and constant terrorist threats to the population. The trade balance in Yemen has been on a negative trend for the last 9 years, showing a continuously growing trade deficit. In addition to that, the national debt of Yemen is growing at a fast pace, accumulating an estimated 30 billion U.S. dollars in debt as of 2017. As of 2016, Yemen’s trade deficit amounted to some 5.77 billion U.S. dollars. The growth rate of the country’s GDP fluctuated in both directions for the last 6 years, having reached 10 percent in 2016 (after a staggering slump of more than 28 percent in 2015). Its most important export partner is Egypt, with a share of more than a quarter in all exports, which mostly consist of crude oil, gas and coffee. The lion's share of Yemen's imports originate from the United Arab Emirates, with a share of 18.5 percent - mostly machinery, foodstuffs and livestock. This text provides general information.

Yemen - International tourism

International tourism, number of arrivals.

The value for International tourism, number of arrivals in Yemen was 398,000 as of 2015. As the graph below shows, over the past 5 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 1,323,000 in 2013 and a minimum value of 398,000 in 2015.

Definition: International inbound tourists (overnight visitors) are the number of tourists who travel to a country other than that in which they have their usual residence, but outside their usual environment, for a period not exceeding 12 months and whose main purpose in visiting is other than an activity remunerated from within the country visited. When data on number of tourists are not available, the number of visitors, which includes tourists, same-day visitors, cruise passengers, and crew members, is shown instead. Sources and collection methods for arrivals differ across countries. In some cases data are from border statistics (police, immigration, and the like) and supplemented by border surveys. In other cases data are from tourism accommodation establishments. For some countries number of arrivals is limited to arrivals by air and for others to arrivals staying in hotels. Some countries include arrivals of nationals residing abroad while others do not. Caution should thus be used in comparing arrivals across countries. The data on inbound tourists refer to the number of arrivals, not to the number of people traveling. Thus a person who makes several trips to a country during a given period is counted each time as a new arrival.

Tourism in Yemen has a lot of potential. But why is tourism so important here and how should it be managed? Read on to find out…

Yemen, located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, is steeped in history and ancient traditions. With its historic towns, towering mountains, and coastal landscapes, it represents a rich tapestry of Middle Eastern heritage. In this article, I will present an overview of Yemen’s touristic allure, touching upon its cultural significance and diverse attractions.

The geography of Yemen 

Yemen is a country located in the southwestern part of the Arabian Peninsula in Western Asia. It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the north, Oman to the east, the Gulf of Aden and the Arabian Sea to the south, and the Red Sea to the west. Yemen is the second-largest country in the peninsula, covering an area of approximately 527,970 square kilometers (203,850 square miles).

The geography of Yemen is diverse and includes rugged mountains, coastal plains, and deserts. The country’s highest point is Jabal an Nabi Shu’ayb, which reaches a height of 3,666 meters (12,028 feet). The western part of Yemen is characterized by the Tihama coastal plain, which runs along the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. This area is relatively hot and humid, with temperatures often reaching 45°C (113°F).

The eastern part of Yemen is dominated by the Hadhramaut and Rub’ al Khali deserts, which are some of the largest in the world. The southern part of the country includes the island of Socotra, which is located in the Arabian Sea and is known for its unique flora and fauna.

Yemen has a long coastline, which includes the port cities of Aden and Hodeidah. The country’s major rivers include the Hadhramaut, the Wadi Bana, and the Wadi Surdud. Yemen also has a number of natural hot springs, such as the Al Hoota and Al Khoban hot springs, which are popular tourist attractions

Yemen’s tourism industry

The tourism industry in Yemen is relatively small compared to other countries in the region. However, the country has a rich cultural and historical heritage, as well as beautiful natural landscapes, that can attract adventurous and curious travelers.

Tourism in Yemen has faced significant challenges due to the ongoing civil war and political instability in the country, as well as security concerns for travelers. The US State Department currently advises against all travel to Yemen due to terrorism, civil unrest, and the potential for armed conflict.

Before the conflict, some of the main attractions in Yemen included the ancient city of Sana’a, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its unique architecture and traditional markets. Other popular destinations included the historic city of Shibam, the island of Socotra, and the ancient city of Marib, which was once the capital of the Sabaean Kingdom.

Despite the challenges facing the tourism industry in Yemen, some adventure travelers and researchers still visit the country to explore its unique culture, landscapes, and history. Yemen’s government and international organizations are working to rebuild and promote the tourism industry, with a focus on sustainable and responsible tourism practices that benefit local communities

Popular types of tourism in Yemen

Yemen is a country with a rich history and culture, as well as stunning natural landscapes. However, due to political instability and security concerns, tourism in Yemen has been limited in recent years. Nevertheless, there are still some popular types of tourism in Yemen that attract visitors from around the world. Here are a few examples:

• Historical and cultural tourism: Yemen is home to numerous ancient cities and historic sites that are of great significance to the world’s cultural heritage. The Old City of Sana’a, for example, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the best-preserved examples of a medieval city in the Islamic world. Other popular historical and cultural sites in Yemen include the ancient city of Shibam, the ruins of the Queen of Sheba’s palace in Marib, and the Zabid old town.
• Adventure tourism: Yemen’s rugged landscapes and diverse geography offer plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as trekking, hiking, and rock climbing. The Haraz Mountains and the Socotra Archipelago are particularly popular destinations for adventure tourism.
• Religious tourism: Yemen is a predominantly Muslim country, and there are numerous mosques and shrines throughout the country that are of great significance to the Islamic faith. The Al Saleh Mosque in Sana’a, for example, is one of the largest mosques in the world, while the tomb of Imam Ali in Aden is a major pilgrimage site for Shia Muslims.
• Ecotourism: Yemen’s unique flora and fauna, particularly on the island of Socotra, have made it a popular destination for ecotourism. The Socotra Archipelago is home to several species of plants and animals that are found nowhere else on earth, making it a particularly fascinating destination for nature lovers.

It’s worth noting, however, that Yemen is currently facing significant political and security challenges, and the country is not considered a safe destination for most travelers. If you are considering traveling to Yemen, it’s important to carefully research the situation and consult with local authorities and travel experts before making any plans

The economic impacts of tourism in Yemen

Tourism has the potential to be a significant driver of economic growth and development in Yemen. However, due to political instability and security concerns, the tourism industry in Yemen has been severely impacted in recent years. Here are some potential economic impacts of tourism in Yemen:

• Employment: Tourism has the potential to create jobs in a wide range of sectors, including hospitality, transportation, and retail. In Yemen, the tourism industry has the potential to provide employment opportunities for thousands of people, particularly in areas with high levels of poverty and unemployment.
• Foreign exchange earnings: Tourism can also bring in foreign exchange earnings to a country through the spending of international visitors. This can help to support the local economy and contribute to overall economic growth. However, given the current state of the tourism industry in Yemen, foreign exchange earnings from tourism are likely to be minimal.
• Infrastructure development: The development of tourism infrastructure, such as hotels, restaurants, and transportation networks, can have positive spillover effects for other sectors of the economy. For example, the construction of new hotels and resorts can create demand for local building materials and construction workers. However, given the current situation in Yemen, investment in tourism infrastructure is unlikely to be a priority.
• Preservation of cultural heritage: Tourism can also contribute to the preservation of cultural heritage sites and traditions. In Yemen, the promotion of cultural tourism could help to raise awareness of the country’s rich cultural heritage and support efforts to protect historic sites and traditions.

Overall, while tourism has the potential to be an important contributor to Yemen’s economy, the current political and security situation in the country means that it is unlikely to play a significant role in the near future.

The social impacts of tourism in Yemen

Tourism can have both positive and negative social impacts on a destination, and this is also true for Yemen. Here are some potential social impacts of tourism in Yemen:

• Cultural exchange: Tourism can provide opportunities for cultural exchange between visitors and locals, leading to greater understanding and appreciation of different cultures. This can help to promote tolerance and respect for diversity. In Yemen, cultural tourism can also provide an opportunity for visitors to learn about the country’s rich history and cultural heritage.
• Community development: Tourism has the potential to support community development by providing employment opportunities and supporting local businesses. This can help to reduce poverty and improve the standard of living for local residents. In Yemen, the development of tourism infrastructure and services could create employment opportunities in areas with high levels of poverty and unemployment.
• Increased pressure on resources: Tourism can also place increased pressure on natural and cultural resources, particularly in destinations that are not well-managed. This can lead to environmental degradation, damage to cultural heritage sites, and overcrowding. In Yemen, the potential increase in tourism could lead to increased pressure on the country’s natural and cultural resources.
• Cultural erosion: Tourism can also lead to cultural erosion, as locals may modify their traditions and culture to appeal to tourists. In Yemen, there is a risk that the promotion of tourism could lead to a loss of traditional cultural practices and values.

Overall, the potential social impacts of tourism in Yemen will depend on how tourism is developed and managed. While tourism has the potential to provide opportunities for cultural exchange and community development, there is also a risk of negative impacts if tourism is not managed carefully. Given the current situation in Yemen, however, it is unlikely that tourism will play a significant role in the country’s social development in the near future

The environmental impacts of tourism in Yemen

Tourism can have both positive and negative environmental impacts on a destination, and this is also true for Yemen. Here are some potential environmental impacts of tourism in Yemen:

• Habitat destruction and biodiversity loss: The development of tourism infrastructure, such as hotels and resorts, can lead to habitat destruction and biodiversity loss. This can be particularly problematic in areas with high levels of biodiversity, such as the Socotra Archipelago, which is home to many unique species of plants and animals.
• Pollution: Tourism in Yemen can also contribute to pollution, particularly in areas with inadequate waste management systems. Tourists may generate large amounts of waste, which can lead to littering and other forms of pollution. This can have negative impacts on local ecosystems and wildlife.
• Water scarcity: Tourism in Yemen can also place increased pressure on water resources, particularly in areas with limited water supplies. This can be particularly problematic in Yemen, which is facing a severe water crisis due to a combination of factors, including climate change, over-extraction of groundwater, and inadequate infrastructure.
• Climate change: Tourism can contribute to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions associated with transportation, energy use, and waste generation. In Yemen, this could exacerbate the country’s vulnerability to climate change impacts such as desertification, drought, and sea-level rise.

Overall, the potential environmental impacts of tourism in Yemen will depend on how tourism is developed and managed. While tourism has the potential to provide economic benefits, it is important to carefully consider the environmental impacts of tourism and take steps to minimize negative impacts. Given the current situation in Yemen, however, it is unlikely that tourism will play a significant role in the country’s environmental sustainability in the near future

Crime and safety in Yemen

Yemen is currently facing significant security challenges, including high levels of crime and violence. The ongoing conflict in the country has created a volatile security situation, and there is a risk of kidnapping, terrorism, and other forms of violence. As such, the US Department of State has issued a “Do Not Travel” advisory for Yemen.

Crime rates in Yemen are generally higher than in many other countries in the region. There is a risk of theft, burglary, and pickpocketing, particularly in urban areas. Visitors should take precautions to safeguard their personal belongings, avoid traveling alone, and be aware of their surroundings at all times.

There is also a risk of kidnapping and terrorism in Yemen, particularly in areas controlled by non-state actors. The risk of kidnapping is highest for foreign nationals and individuals working for international organizations or foreign governments. Visitors to Yemen should avoid traveling to areas that are known to be unsafe and stay informed about the security situation in the country.

In addition to these security concerns, Yemen is also facing a humanitarian crisis, including a severe food shortage, a lack of basic services, and a high incidence of disease. Visitors to Yemen should be prepared for difficult living conditions and be aware of the risks associated with travel to the country.

Overall, given the high level of crime and security risks in Yemen, it is not recommended to travel to the country at this time. If travel is essential, visitors should take all necessary precautions and seek advice from local authorities and international organizations before traveling.
