Rada'a District

Rada'a (Arabic: رداع‎‎) is a walled city in south-east Yemen, although today the city is grown considerably beyond its walls. Located in the Al-Bayda' governorate, Rada'a is the largest and most important of its cities. It was once the home of the second largest Jewish community in Yemen, after Sana'a.
