Ok, I don’t really know the name of this sculpture, but to me, it looks somewhat like a saguaro cactus, which is native to where I grew up in the desert state of Arizona, so I have dubbed it the “Saguaro Cactus Sculpture.” Sorry I don’t have any information to supply you with about the origins of this piece, but it is one of many works of art in the large open air museum called Al Hamra in Jeddah.

I am an American woman. I met my husband more than 30 years ago when we were both college students in Arizona. So after all that time in the states, my hubby desired to move back to his native home of Saudi Arabia. I've been in Jeddah now since October 2007. My new home is amazing: interesting, fascinating, and colorful. The people are warm, courteous and as interested in me as I am in them, however they highly regard their privacy. My camera goes with me every time I step out the door - I don't want to miss a thing!

Very strange, indeed!
Ditto with Dimple. I would think it is a cactus, too.
I can see the resemblance!
