Taiz is the perpetual city of beauty, where people entirely different in their speculations and ways of perceiving things. People of this city are wise, peaceful, educated, and pay more attention in how to be successful in all walks of life. In a city like Taiz, you can find everything moves easily, smoothly, and spontaneously despite the hardships and destitutions, which the Salh regime had been directing against the city to destroy and suffocate the people of the city.
Taiz, the city of love, city of trading , city of education and educated people, city of revolution against tyrants, city of arts , city of history, city of everything beautiful which you will not be able to find in other cites across the country.
The city is an ancient center of trade, cradled by high green mountain slopes where coffee grows. It is just northeast of the ancient Red Sea port of Mokha , for which the coffee drink is named, and the relative cosmopolitanism of its merchant classes helped dissolve the power of the tribes long ago. The area is known to Yemenis as balad al aish — the country of living — in contrast with the north, which is called balad al jaish, or the country of the army. It has always been vulnerable to raids by tribesmen from the arid northern mountains. Taiz was once an attractive city, but it is now battered and decayed, even by the standards of Yemen .
