Haddah (Arabic: حدة Ḥaddah) is an affluent suburb of Sanaa, Yemen, located about 8 km southwest of central Sanaa in Sanhan District of Sanaa Governorate. It has been described as "the Beverly Hills of Sanaa" — a first-world enclave in a third-world city, with its avenues lined by palatial mansions belonging to the country's rich and powerful. Its buildings mostly tend to emulate the architecture of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states.
