I saw these souvenir t-shirts at Bawadi souk. There were other styles and colors, including several styles bearing graphics of the different sculptures of Jeddah.

New Styles for Business Signage
Jeddah looks a little different since I returned. Many businesses along main roads have been required to replace their signage by the municipality. Actually the new requirements for business signs look better and are more uniform. The signs look more uniform and cleaner than the old style panel signs that are backlit by white fluorescent lights, like the one below on the right.

JEDDAH - SIGNS AROUND TOWN

AT THE MALLS, MASK UP!
Practically every shop in the mall has Mask Up signs at the entrance to the shop. In addition now, this mall has big graphic LED screens with visuals from the Ministry of Health telling people to Mask Up.
I still see some people wearing their masks under their noses though. Hopefully these graphics will reinforce the correct way to wear them.

JEDDAH SIGNS OF THE TIMES
I chuckled at the first photo - a fitness center located above an ice cream shop and a donut shop.
Arabic calligraphy still looks like beautiful art to me - hard to imagine it actually says something.

Saudi Pride - on Souvenir Apparel
Products promoting Saudi pride are readily available for purchase in many shops here now. It didn't used to be so easy to find products like these, but with tourism opening up here in Saudi Arabia, souvenirs like these have really taken off.
Graphics of the smiling king, maps of the country and the Saudi flag, the familiar symbolic crossed swords and the palm tree, and the emerald green and white themed colors - all of these can be found on clothing pieces, scarves, coffee mugs, and trinkets.
What a huge change from when I first moved here in 2007 and it was practically impossible to find any kinds of souvenirs in this country. Progress!
