Khalid Wahbi said on Friday that the province is planning to approve a decision to declare Crater a historic city due to its several historic milestones and sites.Speaking to Saba, Wahbi said that two tourist projects are being implemented in Crater city and funded by the World Bank at the cost of $ 1180000, adding that the first project is to light the historic castle of Seera in order to facilitate movement and access from and to the castle."The second project aims at rehabilitating and restoring the old building of the local Legislative Council in the city". Wahbi added.He said that Crater city includes many historical monuments such as the beacon of Aden, the old museum, the military museum and a number of mosques and homes date back more than 100 years.Crater city is situated in a crater of an ancient volcano which forms Shamsan Mountains.Aden actually is a collection of towns, of which Crater is just one. Crater is the biggest and oldest, surrounded lava rock which gave it is name. Walking around in Crater reveals the international nature of this town both in people and buildings, another difference from the much more homogenous towns and cities elsewhere in Yemen. One of the sights to see here, apart from a seemingly abandoned Pizza Hut, are the cisterns. Also known as the Aden Tanks, these enormous cisterns were constructed to store water which would allow the city to survive sieges.
