|* architecture. Sheba's Palace - the wonder of the World
American archeologists claim that they have found one more wonder of the world in Yemen. Madlen Phillips from the USA told the journalists that the ruins and the numerous things found next to the Palace of the
Queen Sheba are three thousand years old!
According to the legend, during the ruling time of Bilqis (her name in Islamic tradition), also known as Sheba, Yemen was the richest country in the world. It was described as a wonderland, where the sand is more valuable then the gold, where the trees grow from the heaven garden and people don't know what war is. All what is left from the richness of Yemen are the ruins and the legend about the Queen as smart as King Solomon!
