Queen Alia Information and Pictures: Part 2

[Veram98]

yamamah is right, while the airport was named after Queen Alia; ALIA - the national airline was named after the king's daughter.

U r right princess mahala ... the airport named after the late Queen alia ... the airlines company after princess Alia bint alhussein... Shareifa Dina was the queen of jordan till her Second marriage to Salah Altamari .

She remind me a lot of queen Noor. I think king Hussein remaried Noor because she was looked so much with his late wife.

[salma]

Yes White Princess, young QNoor looked like Alia.

Salma, you are wonderful! Thank you very much for these lovely pictures. Alia was so fresh, natural and you can see her vivacious personality in her face. This was a lady who liked to laugh and smile

It is hard to think that tomorrow, Alia willhave been dead for longer than she was alive. Such a young life to be taken - 32 years ago. God rest her soul. She is gone but not forgotten.

Beautiful picture xavi83, it really captures the radiance of Alia, shows her big green eyes and those huge dimples she had. Gorgeous! Thank you

Yes Xavi83, his memories of the time of her death and King Hussein's grief and his mother's reactions are very touching. Even today if I see a picture of the helicopter wreckage, it is hard to imagine someone as alive, vibrant and vivacious was in that twisted metal.

very touching article, i liked how he described Ali, its very sad i love queen Alia very much, no one of Jordan's queen has her warm face.

[salma]

I agree Yamamah; today I remember sad pics of her funeral, the hug between King and Alia´s father.

Yamamah do you know why Queen Zein wasn´t present KHussein and QAlia´s wedding?
