Saada is a town in northwestern Yemen, located in the mountainous Yemen Highlands. It was the original capital of Yemen’s Zaydi Muslim dynasty of imams, who were religious-political leaders, from 860 to 1962. Saada has also long served as an administrative center for the northern part of the country and as a hub for Zaydi intellectual life.
